WOW...
Well, let me make a start. I'd be interested in full-length Harold Lloyd features, if Blackhawk released any... also "The Adventurer" with Charlie Chaplin, and maybe "The Rink" and/or "The Pawnshop" too - but all of these must have soundtracks, I don't want any silent films. (Already own the silent version of "The Adventurer" and just recently found out there's a sound version, too, which has once again sent me into raging despair) Oh, and back to Harold Lloyd, is there a full-length print of "Feet First" - the one that had a 400ft. excerpt made from it called "Height of Madness"?

Hello again everyone. I have attempted to convert my database and I am listing the titles of the full-length features I have available. I am also listing if the print is silent, sound or scored. However, please let me know if you have specific questions including pricing. I will follow with shorts in the weeks ahead. Sorry if the formatting below is hard to read. Enjoy! (I will delete titles that have been sold)
The only reason I am not posting prices is because I have not viewed every print and do not wish to misrepresent an item. If there is serious interest in a title, I would be happy to check the print and quote a price. Sorry if this does not meet with protocol but I wanted to get the list out this year.
I have posted prices on films asked about in a later posting. These prints are marked with an aseterisk (*). Shipping to Europe is $25 - $35 per feature by air. (I cannot ship to Italy).

I have received inquires on the following films and as promised will post more specific information on them:
(shipping to Europe is about $25 - $35 per feature by air)
BLUE ANGEL - Dietrich / Jannings; Niles print (but quite good for Niles, I think there is a brief period at the beginning of reel 3 where the sound is a bit lower than the rest).; 99 min. on 4 x 400 foot reels (overfull); original box. $125 SOLD
FOOLISH WIVES - Perfect condition Blackhawk print of the reconstructed Erich Von Stroheim film on 2 x 1200' reels. This is an exceedingly rare find on Super 8 in my opinion and is priced at a slight premium. It is silent (this film was only released in super 8 silent by Blackhawk, but it was released on 16mm, VHS and currently on DVD with on organ score that you may be able to track down). $140. SOLD
GREED - I do not know the source of this rare Erich von Stroheim feature other than it was not a Blackhawk print. It has the original MGM lion at the beginning. The print is on 6 x 400 reels (full) and appears to be in excellent condition, except for a few splices as I think this print originally was on 12 x 200' reels. It appears to be complete with no lines or warping. The source material for the print is good but not perfect - however it is probably as good as gets. $100 HIGH NOON - Good sound, Ivy Print - excellent pre-print source with very nice contrast. Full-length on 5 x 400' reels. Was former library print so has some wear (lines at times but no warping). Good condition, but not perfect. I'd say about a B. $85.
JUNGLE BOOK - Mint print of Disney Animated Feature from Derann in Super 8 Color Stereo Sound (Low fade film stock). On 3 x 600-ft reels. Ran twice. $225.
KRIEMHILDE'S REVENGE - Second part of Lang Niebelungen epic with organ acore and quite hard to find. Very good Blackhawk print. Excellent condition. $125
LITTLE MERMAID, THE - The print of the Little Mermaid was purchased brand new by me. It is on the original 600' reels in the original Derann box. Booming stereo sound and great color. As you know this one is out of print at Derann. The only minor flaw (which happened when I ran it through my back up projector) is a small line that runs from the beginning of the movie up to the end of the title sequence (maybe 100 feet or so). It's there, but not too annoying at all. Otherwise the print is perfect. $275
MARK OF ZORRO - Great organ-scored Blackhawk print of this title. Classic Fairbanks. Excellent condition. $150
OLIVER TWIST - Blackhawk print starring Lon Chaney and Jackie Coogan. Has music (piano score). This print must have been an answer print that just had the magnetic stripe and then a piano score was added. Blackhawk release version had an organ score. The piano score is very nice, however. The first 400' reel (of 4) has some minor sproket wear. It plays fine, but you can see an occasional flicker in the top left of the screen. Not bad in my opinion, but I have adjusted pricing accordingly. $50.
PERFECT CLOWN - This is a Larry Semon comedy on 3 x 400' reels in the original Blackhawk Box and in mint condition! It also features Oliver Hardy. (The Blackhawk catalogue lists it 1075 feet and "slightly abrdiged"). This was done to meximize the comedy pacing, no doubt. $50
SCARFACE - I bought this new from Universal 8. It is in its original packaging, 5 x 400' reels. It is the full-length 1932 version starring Paul Muni. $125 SOLD
SIEGFRIED - First part of epic Niebelungen Film by Fritz Lang. Eecellent Blaackhawk print with organ score. 100 min. $125.
SPARROWS - The Mary Pickford classic in perfect, like new, condition with a piano score. A mint Blackhawk print of the Killiam restoration with piano score. The film runs 75 minutes and is currently mounted on 2 x 800' reels.I paid a premium for this title when I bought it as I was a big fan of scored silents and this is a hard one to find. $150
THAT'S ENTERTAINMENT - slightly edited version (110 min) of feature. I was told that this is a Derann print. It looks like the Ken Films negative to me - but I have had two copies of this print and this is far better than the one I know I bought from Ken Films. Sound is great as is color in Technicolor musical sequences, but color seems a little soft in the backlot narration sequences. $175.
THIEF OF BAGHDAD - excellent Blackhawk 140 minute feature with organ score. Quite rare and in excellent condition. $200
THIS IS THE ARMY - Great movie musical! Ronald Reagan and Kate Smith are both in this one (although not featured). Great Irving Berlin Score. Sound is excellent. Color has warmed some but is still good and has not turned red. Pretty much the way I received the film some 20 years ago. Overall very good and priced to move. Full 120 minute feature. $100
TOP HAT - Astaire / Rodgers. RKO classic with excellent sound. Printed on color stock with a blue tint. Still very enjoyable. $100.
WHAT PRICE GLORY? Mint condition with piano score by William Perry; Blackhawk print on 6 x 400' reels, 132 min. Very rare. $175 [ October 04, 2005, 06:51 AM: Message edited by: Daniel Isenschmid ]
