Alright, someone dim the lights, the slideshow is starting...

While the weather was a bit iffy this time, Friday was gorgeous:

And the ritual began again...but some people can't even wait for load-in to finish [Big Grin]

[Big Grin]

As always, John's table... add a big drink from WaWa and a Keystone 109 projector and you'd practically expect him to walk through the door again:

Lou's tables were groaning with good stuff:

This "Wizard" print was a saved bandsaw print that both looked and ran very well:

In addition to great familiar faces, our friend and supplier Steve Osborne made the looong drive from Ohio (with his family) to grace us with his presence:

More to come, as I am running up against the file limit. When someone comments on this, I will continue the thread here so it's all conveniently in one place.

Claus.

Doug was busy as usual with his GS-1200 Xenon:

Loyal trooper Gary Crawford was there with some excellent 'scope Super-8 features and excerpts:

There's nothing like a JAN projector to keep rollin' em until the cows come home [Smile]

[Smile]

Mr. Capazzo once again made terrific espresso for anyone who wanted:

In place of the famous (!) Heurtier projector he's got, Doug brought this interesting Fujica Standard-8 sound machine. I personally would not wish to have had anything to drink before trying to thread that soundpath without instructions.... [Eek!]

[Eek!]

The room was soon full of the sounds of many projectors running at the same time:

That's it for this upload. Stay tuned...

Claus.

Thanks Clause! Excellent photography as usual. I wish I had taken some pictures too, but it was my first visit, and I was just too caught up in the moment [Smile]

[Smile]

. I was glad Steve Osborne made his first visit as well.

It is always nice to have a fellow collector there who is also a shooter. That's a Beaulieu 6008....one of the serious ones.

To anyone who thinks this isn't a family hobby, I suggest they bring their kids to Wildwood and have a chat with Lou and his son:

Among the offerings, some nice vintage magazines:

My "Hitchcock moment" [Big Grin]

[Big Grin]

Gary Crawford very kindly agreed to drive me back to DC, and between listening to "Johnny Dollar" radio shows and singing along to doo-wop, it was a blast:

We had a lot of 16mm this time:

The JAN 16mm in action. We had everything from cartoons through educationals, features and soundies:

That's it for that batch. A final few to go.

Claus.

Terrific pictures Claus!

It was wonderful meeting Steve Osborne, James Savage and their families. Everyone was in high spirits at the group dinner and it's always fascinating to pick up little snippets of conversation involving prints, projectors and "remember that collector who...."

The evening screening: Steve brought two full reels of both new and rare Super 8 films, including gorgeous German sourced Disney prints and a must have trailer for "Ed Wood". Other 8mm and 16mm films screened included "So You Want an Apartment" one of the Joe McDoakes Behind the Eight Ball series, the monster film mash up "Rendezvous", a segment from an Alice Cooper concert and a hilarious short about one poor chap's misadventures with a pay toilet! The screenings went till 1 AM, finishing up with a beautiful print of "The Music Box".

As always, we toasted John Black for creating this super event.

Please make plans to join in on the fun when CineSea returns to Wildwood on Saturday October 13th.

The fine publication Classic Images kindly contributed samples for attendees.

Another view of the Fujica. Sorry Dino, this one isn't for sale. How else could I watch the Standard 8mm Derann feature print of Psycho that I picked up here?

I think there's room for just one more film.....

Claus had to get me making espresso!!!

I should have told you to take a couple of pics of me on the beach with my metal detector at 6AM. I didn't find any coins, but I did find a couple of metal Goldberg 16mm reels just 4" below the surface...

I am sorry I missed seeing your Fujica in action, Doug; "Psycho" in Reg-8 with sound....wow.

CineSea is truly starting to feel like "family":

Saturday night meant the film dinner. Good fun, food and drink:

Then came the after-dinner screenings. We had excellent red wine, beer and soda to add to the festivities:

As Doug mentioned, an eclectic mix of films ran well into the night:

I came to CineSea rather broke, so I had sworn not to buy anything...yeah, right [Roll Eyes]

[Roll Eyes]

I went home even more broke, but with a nice 16mm print of "Freaks."

So there you have it. CineSea 5; a warm and wonderful gathering.

PLEASE START MAKING YOUR PLANS NOW SO YOU CAN ATTEND ON OCTOBER 13. There were more of us this time, but given our love of the hobby, the convention room should have been packed. Do your very best to try to get to Wildwood in the fall.

See you by the sea....

Claus.

So glad to hear that there is going to be a CineSea in October, so that dead beats like myself will have another opportunity to try and get there. It all looks , and sounds, great.
