Hi All,
Picked up a Pathe Baby a few weeks ago and, after a new shutter (from Ron Ashton) and a new power supply, I'm ready to run my first reel of film through it tonight. I'm pretty excited!
My projector has two numbers stamped on it. On one side, in larger, stamped-in numbers, is 127343. On the other side, in smaller, easier-to-read embossed white/gold numbers, is 000010.
I looked online and couldn't find much about the serial numbers on these machines other than that having numbers on both sides means it was one of the earlier exports from France.
I'm really curious as to if the 000010 means it was the 10th machine exported to the U.S., or if it means anything at all.
Thanks in advance!
-John
