I found a thread her which contained the following:
"The Camus 779 tubes were made by AMR, les Ateliers de la Maison Rouge (Red House Workshops), known for their Aero 7 tubeset used particularly on the Gitane Vigorelli.

But AMR was also a builder of very nice bicycles."

This is the thread...

most AMR built frames bear other names

one means of identifying some of them is by the logo on the crown as on this example badged GP for Georges Paret -
