Camera
Ensignette No. 1 film camera, black and silver metal covering. Patented in 1907, unclear what exact model. Dates from 1911 due to the embossed flag logo and patent details on the right and left hand tabs. The front is supposed to fold out but this mechanism doesn't seem to be working. Apparently it was designed to look like a luxurious metal cigarette case.
