I like how they throw around fancy names like Elmo, Eumig, Bolex, Bell and Howell, Sankyo etc. Plus there's No chance of rusting! I call it fishing for suckers, they may get a bite. [ July 15, 2011, 12:16 PM: Message edited by: Bryan Chernick ]

Is STEPPING ON THE GAS, the originally titled Milburn Morante comedy,which is rare ,or the retitled LIZZIES OF THE FIELD with Billy Bevan which I see all the time? The worst Collectors Club prints were those of the silent features.The shorts, mostly Blackhawk copies, were average to good, as were the talkies. Two reelers were usually shortened by one or two minutes, and were often also available in one reel cutdowns. But, especially in their earlier days they did have lots of rarities, including silent and talking cartoons and comedies,like lots of Felixes,b&w 30es Terrytoons and Van Beurens,Snooky the chimp,Hank Mann,and others.
