Often wonder if outfits like COLUMBIA, CASTLE, BLACKHAWK, CARNIVAL, KEN and the such, destroyed the Super/Std 8 negs to their releases - Or returned them to the owners (doubt that) - More than likely, the negatives were used up in printing, then salvaged for any remaining silver content, and the mystery continues...Shorty

Hi Joe,

few years ago there were some auctions at US-Ebay which were offered negs from Ken Releases together with documents how many editions and prints each edition were made.

Shorty,

If I'm not mistaken, CHC has the Blackhawk
L&H 8mm negatives.

OK Mike, what is CHC? - And yes, let me know on the materials - Shorty - What I REALLY want to know is whatever became of the CASTLE/U-8 negs

Shorty,

None other than Phil S.

I wonder about the Castle negs as well. [Confused]

Because, if so, he couldn't reprint them anyway, more than likely those negs must have long been destroyed as I've never seen nor heard of one being offered
