Hi,
I ahve this auction on Ebay and when I throw a question to the seller, he has not answered until now, while the auction runs to finish.

So, judging from the picture below, can anybody tell me if these movies are 200 or 400 feet.

thanks

Hello Winbert,

"Genghis Khan" is a 200' Columbia release. Although Universal 8 did release a 400' version of "Airport", the box pictured is part of their "Great Scene Series". These shorts were 100' long and highlighted a single scene. The "Airport" one is titled "The Explosion" and has a running time of 4:47.
