Pathé Distributors

Pathé Distributors was a branch of Pathé Frères created in 1915 to manage the distribution of films produced by the company under the Pathé Exchange name, as well as those acquired for their distribution. The company terminated 14 years later in 1929 after the formation of RKO Radio Pictures.
