Tiny antique folding camera - photo/video - by owner - electronics...
I can’t make out the name on the front plate under the handle- Piccobic? Liscobic? Have a fun time playing detective to figure out what this super tiny folder camera is exactly. Inside is pretty...

I saw this on Craigslist and am curious. The seller can only offer vague clues on the logo embossed in the front covering. I'd say clearly German and from the 1930s. There's a fair amount of paint loss too, which doesn't help. Meyer lens, Gauthier Vario (?) shutter.
I think it is a Korelle.

And it seems some were "rebadged",

I think you're right! Impressive, Brian.
I misspoke about the lens obviously -- Ludwig Vidar lens. The camera is for 127 film; portrait orientation. Looks like it came in a variety of lens and shutter combinations.
