If I lived closer I could take it into the Pawn Stars shop so that one of their experts could take a look at it.

Asked a local photo shop several years ago and they did not think it was worth a great deal. Maybe a few hundred if that. Interesting but there are a lot like that out there is what he said.

Not exactly the same camera, but same brand and still an older Box. This suggests "might" be work something:

Sometimes worth and value are not the same thing. I see people on the TV program Pawn stars selling an old family item for a few dollars and then say they are going to have a good meal or spend some time at the slots.
Money is relatively easy to find but a 100 year old cameras or some other items like that are not so easy to come by.

Out of interest I would like to have some idea of the value but would never sell it.
