Hi Mark, I have a rare Standard 8 silent print of Surrender (1927) on 4x 400' if you are considering features. Ivan Mosjoukine's only American film. It's got a brief heavy scratch on reel 2, and intermittent light scratching throughout. In Bonum plastic cases and spools (which need the Standard 8 adaptor for the centre). 24 pounds plus postage. Let me know if you might be interested.

Hi Chris maybe a bit too marked for me thank you, but an interesting title.

Many Thanks Mark.

Mark I have 2 standard 8 silent films which may suit you. They are (a) The Misfit, a Clyde Cook comedy running for about 13 minutes and (b) A Keystone comedy called "Crazy to Act" running for about 11 minutes. Both are black and white but surprisingly good copies. Just let me know if you are interested.

CRAZY TO ACT was a Roach Comedy with Oliver Hardy, usually near 500' or so
