Does anyone know if Universal 8 put out a 400' version didgest of Abbott and Costello meet the Mummy?

I have the 200' silent version of this title.

I have a few of the 400' Abbott and Costello didgests and they are all well edited; Mexican Hayride, In Society, and Abbott and Costello go to Mars.

Just curious and would like a review.

I will post reviews of the above titles later this year.

Regards.

Guy,

Yes they did bring a 400' of "Meet The Mummy" out, and what I can remember it was one of the better U8 edits of the "A&C" comedies, and it has a nice print too. It comes up occasionally on dealers lists, so just watch out for it.

Oh well; missed it. That's okay. One of the things that makes this hobby fun is the search.

Guy. I stopped off for a working lunch on Tuesday and purchased the said 400ft film an a market stall. It came in a white box with photo art on its front and was in good shape when projected. The stall holder also had some other 8mm Universal 8 films and one 9.5mm. I am glad I stopped for lunch although I was late for what I should have been doing.

Hi Guy, I used to sell and buy films from you, you might remember. MEET THE MUMMY is a top-digest, one of the best ones - Shorty
