Photax III with Boyer Serie VIII
A French Bakelite-body camera, introduced in 1947.
The camera has a screw in/out lens that apparently focuses from 2.75 meters to infinity. However, there are no markings on the barrel, so it must have either been guess work, or you simply took photos (optimised) at infinity or 2.75 meters.
Sadly missing its rather cool "Capot Blindé". But the camera only cost £3 at a car boot sale. Another one for my Bakelite camera rescue home!
Here, someone has tried film in their camera:
