Can someone post a photo of the box cover for PALACE OF THE GRAND MASTERS, Super 8 Color/Silent Headline edition from Castle? Also, need to see the code number titles for KEN Films from 200-259 - Much obliged, Shorty

Hi Shorty, I will be happy to help with Ken catalog numbers, but I would like to point out that many numbers are assigned to multiple releases. An example: 201 is used for "The Greatest Show on Earth" - volume 1 (Paramount series), "Pirate's Gold" (Heckle and Jeckle cartoon series), and "Son of Zorro." Do you want all titles numbered 200-250, just those of a particular series, or just the later sound releases?

Well, especially the silent editions say, begin with 220 to 250 - Sound releases later perhaps, thank you - Any chance for that Castle headliner?

The missing titles are not listed in any Ken catalog 1973-79, so either these catalog numbers were never assigned, or retired prior to this.
