No, this car/company was shorter lived than Barron-Vialle.

Is this a photo of the roof lining, and should be turned through 90 degrees, or is it of one of the sides?

Yes, this is the photo of the inner roof lining, which I turned 90 degrees to save some space. Here it is again in its original form, as taken by me from the rear seat.

No, it’s not electric, and not an AEM.

I've made a list of French car makers of that period, discounted cyclecars and better-known makes, and I've got a few left.

Delaugere?

Gosh, there are a huge number of French car makers from the 1920s, so this could take a while!

Sorry, but it’s not a Delaugere.

John Bolster was a bit selective in his choice of "French Vintage Cars" but did his book include this one?

Talking of Bolster - is this the infamous Butterosi?

I know the book you are referring to, but sadly I don't have a copy so I can't reliably say if this make/model is mentioned or not, although it is the sort of car John Bolster would have been intrigued by.

SANS-SECOUSSE if it can be a different brand but related to Cottin & Desgouttes?
