Hi all,
The Pathe Baby films for sale on e-bay etc look different to the usual ones mounted on a reel that just attach to the sprockets..... as I have only seen pics of theses I am unsure if they will fit my Spectro 9.5mm projector?

Cheers,
Clinton

Clinton, these are the original spools (30ft & 60ft, or 10m, 20m) that were made for the original baby projectors. You would need to de-spool them and compile on a reel...The other big difference to keep in mind is these spools will have notched titles (lasting only 1 - 3 frames each) which will be unreadable on the Specto which was released once they had gone exclusively to running titles in the UK...
