Red Fox, Super 8 Sound 5X400' in nice box - Appreciated, Shorty

That's a fairly rare title but its brilliant quality and a superb story line. No your not having mine as it took 5yrs to find my copy which is on Black and White Kodak polyester stock.

Joe,

I have a copy coming in, it should be here in a week or two, I can't tell you yet what the quality is like (although coming from a good source), or what spools they are on, but if you would like 1st option then let me know. I can't give you a price yet until I look at it, but post would be quite high to the U.S. I'm afraid, but once I look at it I could give you a combined price.

So email me with your thoughts at indi8films@aol.com .

Barry.

Joe,

The print od "Fra Diavolo" will be with me by Friday, are you interested at all, as a fellow U.S. collector is interested too, as I said I would give you first option, you have until Friday to let me know if your still interested.

Barry.

Let me know the condition, especially only if the original box is intact and good - Cheers, Shorty

Will do.

Shorty,
What is it with you and boxes???

Posted by Joe Caruso (Member # 11) on June 01, 2009, 03:13 PM:

Well, without going into the long and shorty of it [Smile]

, Original cartons and I have maintained a long-lasting relationship. Half the collecting in emphrenatic advertising collate with 8mm and some 16 due in part to the contribution and sustainability of cardboard encasements - That's the blowhard's explanation - In a nutshell (that I am), boxes are attractive, represent mini-posters and importantly add to the avlue of these films, wouldn't you say? - Besides, who wants a stack of 5X400' reels on a film without a nice home for them - My nickel on it, Cheers from Shorty

Posted by Michael O'Regan (Member # 938) on June 01, 2009, 05:17 PM:

Yeah, I guess you're right. The boxes on a lot of those Castle cutdowns do look really nice. I remember them from my youth, and, in fact have a few lying around.

I collct only 16mm and the boxes don't figure at all, for the main part.

Happy collecting.

-Mike

Dear Joe,

It's here, it's in mint condition, but alas no original boxes, it comes on 2 800' Bonum spools and cases, it's on original B/W stock, and is very rare in this condition. I want £140 for this, but the postage will be another £40 to the U.S. as I insist on sending this as a signed for and insured service, as the value is over £100 and I'm afraid I cannot take chances with this value of film. Please let me know if you're still interested Joe, as I have another couple of U.S. customers who might also be interested, but I promised you first option.

Barry.
