Hello John,

I called Mr. Allen today and I had a very interesting conversation with him. I asked him if he had a list of his items for sale and he said the list was on his head.

I told him, coyly, that I couldn’t possibly know what was on his mind, was there a better way?

He told me to send him a snail mail with what I needed; he would check and get back to me.

I’ll be sending him a note in the morning.

Thanks for the lead.

Jon

John, it would be really expensive to contact Richard from here (Italy). Are you in a position to ask him if he has a list of optical movies for sale? There is a couple of prints I'd be really interested in. Will you let me know, please? Thanks a lot.
Regards.

Gian ...

I contacted Richard and he said that he had some James Bond films but they are not in English, but in foreign language, so you might luck out and find them in Italian! (he didn't say which language).

Hello Osi,

He told me most foreign language films he had were in Spanish. He did mention James Bond and Abbot & Costello.

Gian,

I will be more than happy to include your list. Send it to me by tomorrow (Tuesday), if possible, I am planning on sending my note to him by the end of the day. Here is my email: jaddams55 at hotmail dot com.
