We recently acquired a bulk lot of vintage photography and cinematography equipment from the family of a retired teacher. Movie and slide projectors, editing equipment, signage, lens' and enlargers were all brought back to the workshop - much of which is still in beautiful operating condition. One of the items that really caught our eye was an immaculate condition 1955 Swiss-made Bolex Paillard Super 8 Movie Titler, complete with an accessory kit and original boxes. The Bolex allowed the user to shoot accurately framed title and credit sequences on an 8mm pocket-sized camera for movie projects, long before the world had ever heard of Premier or even Windows Movie Maker
