    Probably more than we realize, but you also may want to post your questions on either of these wet plate forums:

    Good luck.

    This could be a very early camera, but would require an appraisal by an expert to authenticate. Value would depend on a lot of things, Authur continued making lenses until the middle wetplate period, I believe.
