I've decided to sell this rare feature on super 8!

It's "When's You're Birthday?" 1937

Here is a link to the auction.

Better than average Joe E. Brown comedy! it also has the very first time the famous Warner Brother cartoon director Bob Clampett did any animation, in a sequence that almost lasts the length of you're average cartoon, (3 or 4 minutes).

I just watched this for the first time yesterday! I won it on eBay about two weeks ago, and for a Niles print I thought it looked quite good. Its a fun little picture, got better as it progressed, and gets a thumbs up from me.

Dave ...

It is a Niles print? Awesome, I updated my description just a little bit ago on ebay as i forgot to mention that it comes in a NIles box, but I honestly had no idea as to who put this out on Super 8. You are correct, for a Niles print, it's pretty good, might just about be up there with the Sherlock holmes features that they released. One of Niles best, in my opinion, was they're feature of "It's A Wonderful Life"!

And to think I almost said, “09-09-1960” :-D

Huh?!

anyhow, i just wanted to add a thnaks for the info about it actually being a Niles films release, because it's being sold in a Niles 4X400ft size box, You know, the one that has the painted iamges of movie stars, Wayne, Bogie and such, (though the title on cover says, "Satans Satellites"). Box is in about 60 percent quality. tears on the covers corners have been tapes up, some wrinkling to the bottom but not much, but it serves it's purpose. [Smile]

I’ve been tired lately
Thought you were asking
When is your Birthday
To all the members
Before I realized it is the name of a feature.....

Update: I gave in to temptation and snagged it!
