Vintage camera shop/dealer

Posted by: BigH47 on 28 July 2007

Any one know of "trustworthy" dealer or shop in or around London or the SouthEast? I have a couple of 1930s camera an AGFA folding and a small Zeiss box.I don't think they are worth anything much but would not like to just give them away.

I can't vouch for their integrity but there used to be a vintage camera shop located near British Museum. My reference was Truckles (one of the Davy's chain wine bars / pubs) located here: Pied Bull Yard, Off Bury Place, Bloomsbury WC1A 2JR. There are / were two or three camera shops - the vintage one being on your left at the entrance to the yard with a Canon branded shop opposite. Beside Truckles is/was a Leica specialist shop.

More of a Nikon & Leica second hand specialist is Aperture Photographic just round the corner from Pied Bull Yard in Museum Street who buy and sell several brands. May be worth popping in there if the others are not so helpful.
