Hi forumers,
a user of an italian photography forum asked help in identifying a set of old cameras. I did my best on ten, but one does not show brands or marks, and ultimately I'm not a camera collector  . I even wonder if it's a camera...
Can you understand something from these pictures? I imagine the front side could be sufficient for some experts among you. Thanks.

I am no expert on the subject but from what i could find on google it looks like a falling plate camera.
Interesting to know more about it
I am sure someone around here will know the answer.

Definitely a 'falling late magazine camera' The sticker on the side appears to be written in Italian - possibly spanish. The lens cap has the letters BO on them possibly a clue to the maker.
Our friends over at http://cameracollector.proboards.com/ may be able to help. I'll link in your pictures and get back...

Thank you both and yes, the sticker is in Italian (I have not deciphered it completely, but it seems instructions related to "slow" and maybe something not functioning). At least the kind of camera is known (and I see on Ebay that such kind of cameras do not sleigher much, even if old...).

Perhaps pictures without the bright light in the background would help.

I asked for a better picture (of course suggesting a better angle , he is not a photographer -just having a number of old cameras), but trying to take the picture, he found is a Murers Express Newness, so mystery solved, thanks . Phil was right.
