Pathescope 9.5mm Motocamera B.

The Pathe Motocamera was the first Pathe camera with integral clockwork drive. It was sometimes advertised as 'The Pathescope Home Movie Camera' in the UK. It was larger than the Pathe Baby camera and took a physically larger charger known as the P type, which held around 8.2m (27ft) of filmstock. The Model B was a cheaper version of the earlier Motocamera with a simple black finished metal body.
