Welcome to the last issue for 2023. It has been quite a year for anniversaries.
December last year Pathè's 9.5 mm gauge became 100 years old, early this
year 100 years of Kodak’s 16 mm and 90 years of Kodak’s 8 mm gauge. This
month 70 years of CinemaScope in Australia (article in this issue). And of
course 2023 celebrates 30 years of this little publication, Reel Deals.
Thanks to all supporters of RD - whether you are a subscriber, an advertiser, a
buyer or a contributor, your input and support is very much appreciated.
There is a lot on offer in this issue - including another great article by Kev Franzi,
plus a large range of films and equipment for sale.
to all readers - a very happy Christmas
and the best of health for 2023

The June 2023 cover picture
was described as a British
made Dekko - it was in fact it
was a Specto projector.
The Dekko projector is
shown at the right.
