I bought this camera in a junk shop in France because i'm interested in film photography and old cameras but I know very little about this one. It only says two things on the entire camera; 'Lumière' on the lens and on the inside , 'utilise les bobines 620' (use 620 film rolls).
I was wondering if anyone knew anything else about this camera, namely what year it might be from or if it's worth anything? I imagine it might be quite interesting to collectors but I don't know...!
Many thanks, Ursula.

Looks like this one, but with the faceplate missing:

Oh yes! So it does! Thank you so much, that's definitely a mystery solved.
Do you think it's worth anything?
An average Lutac only has a value of around $30 or so. One with no faceplate would have no value to a collector.
