Luma - Belgian Tourer

Having just purchased a 1937 Luma from Gosselies, Belgium, I wonder if anyone has any information on this marque?
The dealer I believe to be Lopderbeck.
Anyone know anything at all about either of these names?
Many thanks.

Yes, yes, picture please. Gosselies is a neighborhood of Charleroi, where the inhabitants speak French, so searching for 'velo' instead of 'bike' or 'fiets' might help. But before you get your hopes up, there are as many Belgian brands as there were bike shops, and it is often difficult to find information.

Here it is - is this known already perhaps?
It is currently awaiting unboxing and reassembling (can't wait!) and full detail pics will be posted then.
Thanks for replies so far by the way.
