PATHEX is known principally as the American brand name for Pathé 9.5, although it appears also to have been used in Europe. Equipment such as resistances and spools
with the Pathex label often crop up in the UK. Now that Maurice Trace is researching Pathex, we may one day know why this is. This is one of his "finds", provided
