Chronology of cameras Plavic
Cameras named as Plavic are from another manufacturer and Plavic completed its offer by incorporating such cameras into its catalog.
They seem few and were released before the end of the 30s, when the Plavic company was totally absorbed by Lumière.
The model that interests us here is very conventional and it is not worth focusing on its description. The shutter is called "Plavicos" and the lens is called Plavic.
Plavic's presence can be traced back to the 1919 Photo-Plait catalog. It wasn't a camera manufacturer but rather specialized in producing film rolls and "film blocks." The manufacturer's name was the Société des Celluloses Planchon based in Lyon. Their production was limited to the cellulose base, as the emulsions were sourced from Lumière.
The Plavic Film company was established in June 1927 and, in an effort to diversify, decided to market cameras under the Plavic and Plavico brand names.
This company ceased to exist on December 31, 1930. It was fully absorbed by the Lumière company.
