Hi,
If anyone knows of a print floating around for sale of the feature version of RETURN OF CHANDU with Bela Lugosi (1934), please let me know. I am seriously interested. Also, MYSTERIOUS MR. WONG... both of these films were released in nice prints by Niles Films in the sixties/seventies.
thank you,

Hello Brian.
If there is anything I can say about my collection its that I must have just about every 8mm issue of our Béla Ferenc Dezsõ Blaskó and a number of duplicates including this one. My spare copy is Std 8mm Mag Sound though.

My print of RofC is on 3 X 600ft reels and in protective library cases.

I also have the Sup8 400ft boxed cut down spare I think.
Good to know another Lugosi fan! [Smile]

sorry to interfere [Smile]

Hello Lee, do you have other dups of lugosi films?
I'm mostly interested for digests though, not full features.

please email if you have anything available, I might be very interested.

thanks [Big Grin]

and sorry to highjack Brian's post [Wink]

Hi. Yes will have a good number of extra copies so will forward a list in a few days for you to look over. Beloved wife and I are in the process of checking prints I have two or dare I say more of and we are only a few feet from the back of the wall now.
Stand by..

Brian,

Unfortunately Universal 8 never released The Black Cat in any fashion. However, there are full length prints out there somewhere!

Thanks Doug,
Yes, I remember now that there is no such animal. Unfortunate. Can you tell me or direct me to what Universal 8 did release in a 400 foot version? Thank you, Brian

Brian,

Here's a thread about that very subject.
