Chronology of cameras Omnium Photo
The Pocket-Filmo is listed in Omnium Photo catalogs as a specific model labeled "Omnium." Examination of the engraving reveals the initials "JD," and upon reading the description, several elements indicate that it was constructed by Jules Demaria. Omnium Photo appears to have sourced extensively from this manufacturer. Omnium's address was 29 Rue de Clichy in Paris, while Jules Demaria's address was 35 Rue de Clichy.
As a reminder, Jules Demaria is one of the two Demaria brothers who separated after the First World War. The other brother continued to manage the family company under the name Demaria-Lapierre.
The device is a fully metallic folding camera coated with frosted paint.
