This is fantastic -
Thank you, J. and Derek.
I have never known what the proper term for this film is, but Pathe
"Baby" 9.5mm sure sounds like it describes it well. At least now I
have a name for the format. I see from Derek's suggested web site that
a 9.5mm conversion is available. And looking for a projector is a good
idea too. Especially at the conversion prices (but I'll bet this is
time-consuming to do).
Hope exists! Now to figure out how much I'm willing and able to spend
on this...
