AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Goerz Wien Minicord – Complete Set with Original Box & Manual

Offered is a rare and charming Minicord miniature camera manufactured by C.P. Goerz Wien in the 1950s.

This elegant and compact camera represents a fascinating example of post-war mechanical design and precision craftsmanship from Vienna.

The camera is presented as a complete collector’s set, including:
• Original presentation box
• Original instruction manual
• Camera in very good cosmetic condition

The leatherette covering remains intact, the metal parts show only light signs of age, and the optics appear clean.

The Minicord was designed for 16mm film and today is appreciated primarily as a collectible mechanical object and design piece rather than for practical photographic use.

A wonderful addition to any collection of:
• vintage cameras
• mechanical curiosities
• mid-century industrial design

or simply as a decorative conversation piece.

Condition:
Very good vintage condition with minor signs of age.
Untested functionality.
