Re: Value of an old Rolleicord?

[Marc James Small <msmall >]

Well, you have an early Rolleicord, but we need the body number -- which is
almost certainly found on the top plate, front of the camera, immediately
below the 'Rolleicord' name.  The '3183857' number is the number of the
Compur shutter, and thanks for sending that, as well!  (I devour serial
numbers.) 

Your lens dates from mid or late 1936, so this is PROBABLY a 'Cord II.
McKeown lists a value of between $100 to $150 RETAIL, but that seems awfully
high to me, as F&H made gazillions of these things.  I just paid $50 for a
'Cord Ib in E++++++++++++ condition (that was the only way I could get the
bloody serial numbers!).
