Pathe Freres Pathe KOK
The Pathé KOK is an early French home-cinema apparatus produced by Pathé Frères, designed around the 9.5mm film format that Pathé introduced in the 1920s. It was sold as a domestic projector system for showing reduced-format prints in the home, positioning it at the consumer end of the early amateur cinema market.
Sales data for the Pathé KOK is extremely thin, with only a single recorded UK auction hammer result: £836 at Christie's in 2004. With just one data point, today's value is difficult to pin down, and what a Pathé KOK sells for in 2026 will depend heavily on completeness, working order, and whether original accessories accompany the lot.
