Pre-War Cats
PATHÉ EQUIPMENT CATALOGUES - Pre-War
Here is a run of covers (and one back cover) from the 30's. I believe the two undated ones to be summer 34 and 35 respectively, although on reflection this seems unlikely since one cover is definitely an odd one out in the run. A number of these were from Pete Diggle.

Rather than put each page of a catlog as a separate pic, I am trying the pdf approach. I ent got it quite right yet as this one has come out with a meaningless name, but it should load OK. Sadly, I have now noticed that I do not have pages 14 and 15 and never realised it. I can't find them anywhere.

I am using Microsoft Write to Pdf and it is a very irritating critter. It can't seem to understand that while most pix in a catlog are of double-page spreads and so landscape, this does not mean the single-page covers should be printed on their side. So I have inserted the covers separately and what is between those covers is a pdf. I spose I could try combining the covers into a 2-page spread but that don't look right either. Or splitting the double-pagers, but that would be extra work.

For some reason I did this in single sheets all thru so hopefully no pdf problem.
1937
Just the covers and a PDF.
1939
PDF and covers, plus an updated price list that I think came with this catlog but which is so far resisting my effoerts to photoshop it.
Here is an unusual Italian catlog, again courtesy Pat Moules.
Each of these pix is two pages; the leaflet folds out several times.
