Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think we were told that "satchel" cameras were all over the place in 1868. Apparently, in 1868, they had a strong demand for "small photographic cameras for tourists".
I was unable to find any depictions of the above-mentioned 1868 pocket cameras. Below you can see two pages from the Negretti & Zambra's 1885 Catalogue.
I think the below Wiki article needs to be seriously updated.
