I have never seen, not even on picture, the Cinemeccanica 35mm 4-track magnetic sound head. Just curious if anyone here has any experience of it? Perhaps a picture?

Can't find pix on mobile now, but i have it somewhere....this is combo 6ch for 70mm/4ch 35mm magnetic soundhead on my V8. There is no manufacturer mark, but only cinemeccanica logo on it, but i doubt they did make it in house.......even, i know they did make gass photocell back in 50's [Big Grin]

The 35mm was a bolt on top assembly with a sprocket and a soft loop stablizer like the 70mm for the v8 and 10 but was a pull through design
