The Photo-Magic was a 4x6.5 bakelite camera. It was very simple, with Photo-Magic only written around the meniscus lens, and a time and instant shutter, sometimes marked P and I and sometimes T and I. Some were marked British made inside the back (see for example this post).
It looks a little like the original MIOM camera. Vial dates it from 1948, and McKeown lists it under the Boumsell entry. It is discussed in more detail by Sylvain Halgand on his Photo-Magic page.
