The Age of Cine

Exhibition opens on Saturday 13th December

The Age of Cine: Cameras, Projectors and the Magic of Film

This exhibition showcases a selection of cine equipment designed for the home-movie market. Highlights include a range of cine cameras, among them the iconic 1920s Baby Pathé, as well as projectors and accessories. The display also features programmes from local cinemas and the original ticket machine from the Regal, Worksop. Together, these objects evoke memories of cinema-going and home filmmaking, offering a nostalgic look back at earlier technologies and the remarkable contrast with today’s digital world of film.
