I came across a couple of S8S prints I'd forgotten I had when cleaning out a closet today: 1. MEETING AT MIDNIGHT (aka: BLACK MAGIC) - 1944 - Sidney Toler as Charlie Chan, mounted on a like-new Goldberg metal 1200' reel. 2. WHEN'S YOUR BIRTHDAY - 1937 - Joe E. Brown, mounted on one like-new Goldberg metal 1200' reel and one 400' reel. I'm not absolutely sure the Chan is complete as I no longer have my ST 1200 to check it out and no other way to rewind it, but the Brown has a "reel one" marked on it, so it probably is. Other that the head of MAM needing a bit more leader, they both look to be in good shape, and I recall them being of good quality. No warping or apparent vinegar smell, very pliable. One of the big reels still has the $7.35 price tag on it. Asking $35 for the two plus shipping, or trade for something on 16mm (cartoon, 2-reeler, etc.).
email me at kingsley4Averizon.net for whatever reason.
Thanks all! Kingsley Candler

Folks!
Snap up "When's Your Birthday?". I have a print of this, and it is a VERY nice Super 8 feature print, a good black and white print.
Also, it has in it's beginning credits, the very first animated direction by the famous Warner Brothers cartoon director, Bob Clampett, (who would also later go on to produce and direct "Beany and Cecil" for TV). that beginning sequence is a good four or five minutes of the feature alone.
Anyway, that's my five cents worth. This is only the second print of that film, that I have seen thus far.
