Fototecnica Torino was a camera maker of the 1940s and '50s, based in the Italian car-industry capital Turin. The company made several rather stylish box cameras. Notes on the company at Storia della Fotografia note some doubt as to the relationship between Fototecnica and P&B, whose logo appears on a few examples of Fototecnica cameras (such as the Tennar shown below).[1]
