CineSea 14 is less than a month away, so it's time for attendees to nominate a print from their collection for a screening on Friday evening, October 21st at the Ocean Holiday Resort in Wildwood Crest, New Jersey. Admission is free.

So open that closet o' film, take a good look and please list the title (up to two per collector) and format here by 10/6. We'll then have an online survey and attendees can pick which title they prefer by 10/14.

Previous screenings have included Super 8 prints of The 7th Voyage of Sinbad, Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein and a gorgeous 16mm scope print of Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope.

My two offerings are both from Derann. The full length Scars of Dracula 1970 (Super 8mm, color) and Master & Commander 2003(Super 8mm color/scope)

Join the fray!

Master and Commander in Scope. Really would love to see that on the big screen.

I'm about to purchase a very rare print of The Black Pirate with Douglas Fairbanks. What makes it rare is it is a color print of the two-strip Technicolor. You can't find that on 16mm film. It is from an original 35mm print. On low fade. I'd love to share it with you guys if you are at all interested. I am sending the check tomorrow to a collector friend, and will have it in my hands very soon.

Here's the information I received from the person I am buying THE BLACK PIRATE from. The print derives from high quality material in the Raymond Rohauer collection. Though not sure if the negative was a Rohauer negative that was accessed or acquired or if the negative was made from a 35mm print, the quality is excellent. The two strip technicolor (which is a different look from later 3 strip Technicolor) is a great example of color in the silent film and is very appealing. It's a great performance by Fairbanks and the entire cast too. Prints were struck late enough that they were all on low fade stock. I'm not sure if the print has any stock markings imprinted along the edge codes, but the color is low fade.
We can look at it together and use our expertise to maybe come up with some answers. This is all the information I currently have, but I will be able to attest to its quality once I have received it and it has been viewed. It sounds like quite a rarity, and thought folks might be interested.

Sounds very interesting Jack. I am going to nominate two 16mm prints from my collection. The first one is an LPP print of the sci-fi classic, "Aliens" (1986) and the second is an LPP print of "Golden Voyage of Sinbad" (1973).

Aliens wasn't shot in scope believe it or not. I thought the same thing when I bought the print, which is probably why the gentleman I bought it from sold it to me at such a reasonable price.

Jack, I think you might have a Griggs or Glenn Photo print-down, if the original titles and inter-titles are intact - I'd have to see it to be sure - Shorty

I am offering a very soft focus, barely watchable Super 8 print of THE PRIVATE LIFE OF KING HENRY THE VIII just to have something to vote against. If it wins I will be on the boardwalk during the Friday feature screening.

-be careful what you wish for:

I nominated one of my stinkers once as a goof and Doug called my bluff!

(Had to campaign against my own film!)

"Better prints have been lifted at crime scenes!"

What's funny is I've always wanted to see "The Private Life of King Henry the VIII". It is one of the films featured in Blackhawk's sound sampler "Movies that Talk and Sing" and I'm curious what the rest of it is like.

It's a good movie but the print quality is not up to Blackhawk's usual standard.
Some of their later prints might be better. I still don't want to part with my copy.

NILES had it - Same difference - This is a London Film, distinguished by costumes, and the actual Balmoral Castle during Henry's reign - Very nicely-done history, has to jump around a bit in order to be more concise with facts - It would be a pleasure to see this and later such films, but many don't have the witherall or patience - Long Live The King - Shorty

In order to continue the Star Wars Triolagy, I am offering to show my Near Mint LPP Scope original Fox Mylar print of The Empire Strikes Back, with dazzling picture, color and sound! Come on, we need to finish the series lol. Second film I am offering is a vintage old 1934 Kodak original print of The Invisible Man with Claude Rains for Halloween! Looking forward to seeing you all, along with selected shorts, trailers and more of the Crimson Ghost!! [Smile]

Hey Shorty-

I believe the print I am getting of "The Black Pirate" was privately done. It is a very limited print run from my understanding.
