Background

The Pathé Baby is an amateur cinema system invented by Victor Continsouza, manufactured and marketed by the French company Pathé Frères between 1904 and 1936, which stood out for being one of the first cinematographic systems conceived and designed to bring the cinema home.

1st Logo (1907-April 14, 1931)

Visuals: Over a black background is an oval with a picture of a cracked egg and a baby chick, with the text "Pathé-Baby" in a fancy font underlined.

Variants:

A red tinted version exists.
A magenta version exists.

Technique: A still, printed image.

Audio: None.

Availability: It was seen on Le Châteaux de Chambord (The Castle of Chambord) and L’infernal Contorsionniste (The Infernal Contortionist). The magenta version appears on 春の唄.

2nd Logo (1911-August 28, 1926)

Visuals: Over a black background is the white, abstract rooster that crows again, which is written in a graffiti-like style, albeit with a fluorescent white drawing. Underneath is "Pathé - Baby" with underlined below the rooster, and the "-" is inside the leg of rooster.
