The Pathé 'KOK' 28mm projector was first made in France in 1912.
Designed specifically for home use by the Pathé company, this projector was known as the 'KOK' after the firm's trademark, a crowing cockerel. For this Pathé devised a new format, 28mm non-flammable cellulose acetate safety film that has one perforation per frame on one side and three on the other. The crank handle not only moved the film but also drove a small dynamo to power the projector light source, which went out when cranking stopped - another safety feature.
