Ever since the inception of motion pictures, the name Pathe has been a most important factor. pH Charles Pathe was one of the first to operate a motion picture exchange. He originated the newsreel. He pioneered in the design and manufacture of great cinematographic equipment. Pathe, with an unchallenged heritage in motion picture camera pioneering and development, now presents to the professional and the professionally-minded amateur a truly fine instrument embodying all professional features. The result of years of unquestioned leadership in a highly specialized field, the Pathe Super "16" offers flexibility, scope and refinements unsurpassed by any other 16mm camera, regardless of price. See it . . . test it . . . compare it! You, too, will agree that it is the ultimate in the 16mm motion picture camera world. List Price, $395.00, less lens. (No excise tax.)

Now no more out* of-focus pictures ... no more chopped heads... no necessity for parallax correction — there is no parallax. All the advantages heretofore enjoyed by Hollywood's top cameramen are' now made available to you by Pathe engineering. "This is but one of the many features of the Pathe Super "16" that makes me certain thai it is the finest 1 6mm I have ever seen." Robert 6. Brock way President, Palh& Cine NOTE...
