Well done to Derann for there first FFTC produced on site. I've just recieved mine in the post and its been well worth waiting for. Crammed with goodies & Double thick as well. I see the Master and commander release gets an A/A* on the review and there aint many films that get that Xtra * Get reading now and if you dont subscribe get sorted son! Good boy's, well done.

I too got mine this morning and it was well worth the wait. This has to be the biggest edition for a very long time being a great 40 pages thick. Really at the end of the day it's down to us collectors and enthusiasts to keep the mag going. Derann are wanting input from all of us to help fill the mag so maybe we should support them and send in items that we think will be of use to other readers. That BTW includes me as I tend to forget these days that there are still collectors out there that dont have access to the net so cant enjoy the info on forums such as this and thats where mags such as FFTC and Reel Image etc come into play. Well done Derann for a great issue.

Here, aint that what they been saying? Theres many good things on here, anyone got any suggestions for an article? There must be hundreds. I did note how few readers letters there were and also how very few customers ads were in the back pages

Got my copy this morning as well, it really is a bumper jobby with loads to read. I had to smile at Johns reference to my fettish for original boxes , funny what you become known for!
Strange coincidence; just had a trip over to Arundel and a mosie round the antique shops and of course my favourite photographic/cine shop, they had a stack of FFTC including a load from before I started subscribing. Needless to say I brought a few copies home .

ps: Tom, once again an excellant article about Elmo maintenance, you put us all to shame...

I would comment but I haven't seen it yet. Wasn't 'Film For The Collector' always 40 pages?
