I have a print of MODEL RAILROADING UNLIMITED for sale or trade. If ever a film deserved to be called a minor masterpiece this is surely the one! Made in 1975 it is hosted by Ward Kimball and narrated by Hans Conreid.

The color is turning but I've seen far worse as far as bad color is concerned. As far as I can tell, it is complete. There is an opening introduction with Ward Kimball and then the main title. End credits seem to be complete although it does end a bit abruptly; I suppose there could be a few frames missing at the very end.

It runs close to half an hour and includes the hysterical musical interlude, complete with dancing girls, and, of course, the very funny (and genuinely suspenseful!) grand finale in which disaster on the rails is narrowly avoided.

Asking $65 shipping with tracking included.

In terms of a trade, I am always looking for anything off the beaten path relating to Charles Dickens. Any format.
