Hello all!
I've just joined these forums on account of my recent acquisition of a standard 8mm film projector.
I'd like to know if any of ya'll wouldn't mind selling me a few films to kickstart my collection. I'm primarily interested in silent comedy and cartoons, as well as early silent one or two reel dramas/westerns from the 1910's. Thanks all for your help!

Hi Bill - If Nate doesn't want it... it's yours - Ray

Posted by Nate Lockhart (Member # 2161) on September 06, 2010, 09:34 PM:

Dude, it is all yours.

Posted by Bill Phelps (Member # 1431) on September 07, 2010, 06:11 PM:

Nate...are you refering to "Kiko at the Bat"?

I collect Kiko the Kangaroo and I couldn't resist asking about it! If you aren't interested in that title I'd be happy to take it.

By the way...welcome to the forum!

Posted by Nate Lockhart (Member # 2161) on September 07, 2010, 08:18 PM:

Yup! Kiko is all yours! And thank you for the welcome! As for buying films, I think I'm set for the moment, but I'd really like to thank you all for your speedy replies! (I've a honeymoon to save up for, so I can't go too crazy) I'll definitely put in another request in the near future, and I'd love to offer you all something once I have something worth offerning. Thanks for the help!

A belated welcome to the forum Nate! I'm a former collector now getting back into the fray so I fully understand your situation.

Cheers,
