Hi!
I bought a 400' polyester cutdown of John Fords Feature Escape to Victory on ebay lately - and since there was no original box, I wonder what company issued this. This cutdown seems to not show up very often.
Could one of you experts give me a hint? Thank you very much!
Oh, and maybe you also know if the full film was ever released on 8mm.

Hi Michael,

This 400ft promo reel was released by Walton Films here in the UK and usually turns up on ebay UK on a regular basis.

It was released in both Scope & Flat versions.

Oh, so it's a promo reel!
I haven't screened it yet, so now I know what to expect.
Thank you, Mark
