I am looking for new or used, FLAT only. Good quality. No pink faded copies, please.

Will take any titles, although they must be green band trailers (approved for ALL audiences).

Note: a "red band" trailer refers to the trailer that contains R-Rated material within that said trailer. For those who don't know, the text that begins theater trailers in the USA that has a GREEN or RED background is an easy way to tell the difference.

You don't always see these messages as some theater chains have their projectionists remove the tags. Why exactly the reason for this, I do not know. But personally, I feel the tags should not be removed.

The colored background means the trailer can be for restricted audiences (red) or all audiences (green). So, a green band trailer could go on any other feature, even if the movie advertised was rated R. Although logically, you wouldn't put an R rated green band on a Disney show [Big Grin]

Anyways, if you have trailers you wish to sell, please email me.

Thanks !

Chip, I'm confused.

Did you mean that band that is on the beginning of movie trailers?
Or, do you means that Green band that is at most times on 35MM trailer issued for quite awhile?

I just ask as I do have quite a few 35MM trailers, FLAT as well, aand they have they're original bands on most of them.

I think Chip just means wanted on super 8 as are origionally on 35mm, IE general OK viewing.

I think most things on super 8 are generally.

I`ll send you a small list chip.

Best Mark.
