Bing/Germany (this well known toy maker almost certainly had its 'Fita' folder made for it by a German camera manufacturer). Other German manufacturers were: Emil Busch,Contessa Nettel,Ernemann(boxes and folders),Feba,Krauss,Nagel,Orionwerk,Voigtlander,Welta,Zeiss Ikon (boxes and folders). Wauckosin (Sellers but not Makers of cameras) had a 5X8cm model in their 'Waranette' range but it may have been made by Welta. Kern in Switzerland made a folder (the 'Simplo') and Photo-Plait in France sold, but almost certainly did not manufacture, another under the brand name of 'Plavic'- the 'Passe Partout'. Finally I believe versions of the Ensignette No.2 were made, under licence, in Italy and Japan.
