So, I have some antiques.
I know that I can buy the Mckeown's Camera Guide, a bible to vintage cameras, but, I thought I would ask the general population in DPC first if anyone knew of the value of these following cameras.
Kodak No 3a Folding Pocket Autographic Model C
Kodak No 1A Folding Pocket Series 3
Argus Range finder 35mm, w/ Argus Coated Cintar 50mm fixed lens
Bower 35 Prontor-S w/Steinheil Munchen Cassar 45mm fixed lens
Kodak Brownie Hawkeye Flash model W/ Kodalite flash holder
Sears Ted Williams Cartridge Load Varizoom 8mm movie camera
Kodak Instamatic M12 8mm w/ ektanar lens movie camera
Bell and Howell Director Series Dual Electric Eye Zoomatic 8mm movie camera
Any clues to there value, or someplace on the WWW to check out would be a great start before I buy a $90 book.
Thanks in advance.

Good point.
But, before I go there.
Is there any ideas of worth?

These were the two suggestions I would have made. Your library may have its catalog online, so you can check before going there, and also probably has a reference librarian who can tell you if they have the book, or possibly even look up the citations for you if it's not too busy a day. |

I did a search on ebay ... my favorite place to estimate current market values. I bolded what I found on ebay. Found many items of most of the things you have listed. I think you have in your possession mostly items that you should keep as conversation pieces.
