I have a collection of around 270+ 200ft Standard 8 / B&W / Silent films from the British company "Collector's Club".

There are about 5 sound titles in there and a couple of sealed Walton prints (steam train themed).

I acquired these several years ago and intended to work my way through them, but have decided I don't have the time nor inclination to do so anymore, so I'd prefer them to go to a new home.

They are mostly boxed in original Collector's Club yellow card boxes but are UNCHECKED, although most appear to never have been projected and both boxes and films look in pretty good condition.

Have been stored well and no vinegar.

Some titles included are; Metropolis (200ft x 9), Nosferatu (200ft x 6), Battleship Potemkin (200ft x 5), Phantom of the Opera (200ft x 7) and The General (200ft x 7).

Although, I don't know if these titles are complete or not and really don't have time to run them.

Looking for £120.00 (British pound sterling) via paypal for the lot - will only sell as a bulk lot as I just want to move them on.

Now then, shipping may be a problem as this lot is HEAVY!!!

If you are interested, or have any questions, let me know here and I can look into shipping prices and do my best to answer anything else.

Have you any idea how high the cost of shipping to USA may be? I am interested in the lot but may have to re-mortgage my house to pay the shipping!

I'm afraid so, Pasquale.

My initial guess-timate of weight is around 34Kg.

So shipping to USA via Parcelforce in the UK is in the region of £220.00

Gulp.

Unless anyone else can suggest cheaper options?

As a guide, shipping within UK looks like being about £80.00

I thought so. I could have it sent to my relative in the UK but then I won't be going there until next year. Too bad that's a great collection.

How about a title list? (If you haven't sold them already).
