Featured German Zeiss camera's In the "Free" box at a yard sale

I didn't even bother to ask, i just picked them up and walked swiftly
to my car.
These are Zeiss Ikon Super Iconta 531's
They seem to be in working order with some minor damages.
Two different styles though with different lens's
Pretty sure they are post War 1940's.
Any thoughts appreciated.
When i go to sell them should i sell together?
As is for parts/repair?
Or working non tested?

 

I think you may have been supposed to pay for them too...

 

I'd say you 'done gud' if they were in the free box, and am betting there's a collector out there that will be thrilled to get them!!!!!!!!!!!!! They look in pretty decent condition from here!! But then I'm not really a camera buff......

 

My late dad would have had film in them ASAP.(LOL) Straight load film isn't that hard to use, if they still make that size. I bet some happy camper out there would take them off your hands and mess with them. The lenses alone are worth a few bucks.

 

Seemingly a score. But I would guess they were in the wrong box (that’s the only thing that makes sense to me personally)

 

Great find!! I always check the free box, found a pair of sterling candle holders with the intact glass globes once and asked if they were supposed to be in the free pile and was told yes take them all!!

 

There are always several old cameras at my local thrifts for only a few $. It seems most are worthless. The sale holders probably had no idea that theirs had value. Maybe they were just "grandpa's old stuff" to them.

 

I think that these use the 120 film which can be obtained on the internet. I would list them singly at different time an describe them as having normal wear & tear and not tested. Apparent damage should be shown in photos.
Nice catch. They look very good in your photos.

 

That's the first film I ever used. Dad had me loading his twin-lens reflex cameras when I was in second grade. The slower speed film could help create incredibly detailed images. Those either will land on a shelf or get put right back into service.
