26 OUT upon this " innings "

Dear Sir, \ 'l
Mr. F. A. Bussell claims a record for twenty two years in 9.5 mm. (April-
May P.M.). I started 26 years ago with a Pathe Kid, I sold it a couple of years
ago to a London dealer for thirty shillings. I still use a 9.5 mm. cine camera
bought at the same time as the "KID".
24 years' use of your cheaper type of projector, and then to sell the same
at just over half the original purchase price proves the good value of your
excellent cine equipment.
I now use a Pathe Gem, and look forward to another twenty years of good
service, knowing Pathescope will maintain the same high standard.
Yours Sincerely, A. W. BRAMHAM.
P.S. I forgot the main item, the "Kid" never had to receive any repairs, just
odd lamp replacements.
