Hi Clinton, The only colour printed films ever issued by Pathe/ Pathescope were indeed a small number of the 30ft notched titles in the closed cassettes. They were coloured using the Pathe stencil process. Some of the Pathescope releases did have tinted sequences and I do remember seeing one of the "railway" dramas where the signal light was coloured red! However, there were one or two other companies e.g. Walton, who issued a few 9.5mm prints usually 100ft documentaries, in the 1950s. With regard to coloured camera film stock on 9.5mm. Before the war we had Dufaycolour, Then post war Kodachrome 1 and 11, Pathescope colour (Ferrania), Eastmancolor, Gevacolour, Agfa (Orwo)and maybe a few others I have forgotten about. You may also come across colour prints which were cut and reperforated from 16mm. Here endeth todays lesson!!Ken Finch
