Here's some info from the good ol' web:
The Ensignette was designed by the Swedish Engineer Magnus Neill, who was also responsible for the design of the pocket watch camera called the "Ticka' that was manufactured in Britain by Houghtons Ltd. Neill patented the design for the Ensignette in 1907; this date appears on the front of the camera. The camera was not introduced to the market at the end of 1909.
Early in 1912, presumably encouraged by the success of the Ensignette and the growing popularity of small pocket sized cameras, Houghtons introduced a new version. This new model was called the No.2 Ensignette, which took six pictures of a larger size of 3x2 inches on a new size of roll film 2E.
In about 1920 the design and manufacture was changed to use aluminium for the bodywork in place of brass.
