A rare Disney cartoon has been found in my neck of the woods in Herefordshire. It's a 16mm cartoon silent short called Hungry Hobos which had been lost for 80 years.
Heres a link for you to look at.

That’s the trouble with film archives, they don’t know exactly what they’ve got and where.

I see the first thing they did was put it up for auction.

Lee...I can understand. I am starting to lose track of mine and it's not that big!

I hope the cartoon is preserved and shared not just hidden away for even more decades. Especially if it is the only copy.
