According to McKeowns camera guide

Built in RF. Camera was designed by the late Vic Yager and manufactured by the VIDMAR CAMERA CO. in New York circa 1948. Only 100 body castings were made. Total production was 75 to 85 units. Before the announcement of the 1st Polaroid camera rocked the industry and dried up investment funds.
