'''Availability:''' Very rare. Most surviving prints of their output have this removed or plastered over with the 11th logo (an example of this is on the Olive Films DVD & Blu-ray of the 1959 French version of ''Les Misérables''). May still be intact on French films released by The Criterion Collection, Fox Lorber, and Koch Media, among other specialty/art film labels. Was also seen on UK and French prints of Hal Roach's ''Laurel and Hardy'' comedies. This was found intact on Pathegrams News Digests. Also seen on ''Van Beuren'' cartoons from 1929-1930 (most YouTubers remove the Pathé logo, but some kept them, particulary [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC91Xc99QjNk-ywL6U8oDyXg/videos Motion Pictures]).
