Dallmeyer stereo wet plate camera

[Craig Tuffin]

I have the possibility of buying this camera. Basically it's mint with the plate holder and 2 Dallmeyer 4" f4 lenses (1a's ?) with original caps and waterhouse stops.

I was wondering if anyone know what it would be worth...ballpark figure.

More likely to be a pair of stereo Petzvals which was a special category in Dallmeyer's early production.

There are wonderful cameras.
Stereo collectors are a bit like some ULF categories users- price is no object sometimes!

Worth is what the seller decides it is worth.

The Polish seller used to have the Dallmeyer stereo too.
When comparing the models he has sold, it looks like there was the same supplier (Meagher?) to all of them.

None of his stereo sales seem to have included plate holders, though.
