I actually think that I might have the same camera as you. But, because it has been handed down in my family for decades, I haven't given much thought to the monetary value of it, other than the intrinsic and sentimental value of it because it has been in the family for generations and is thus "priceless" to me and my children because of that fact. So many of the family pictures were taken with that camera. I have the pictures. The fact that yours still has an instruction manual with it would add to the value of the camera.
Ultimately, what collectors items of this sort in terms of the monetary value of them, is determined by what someone is willing to pay for them. If it has been a part of your family for a long time, then it might have great value beyond that which is monetary.
Was this camera a part of your family?
