I don't know if anyone would be interested in this on here ...

... but I have an extra long PSA that stars the full cast from the hit TV show of the 70's and early 80's "Alice", concerning savings bonds. (this was made in 1977)

Usually, most PSA's are around a minute or two, but this is more like about 10 minutes or so, so it's a whole long skit of comedy as well as educating concerning savings bonds.

Please note: This does have eastman fade, but there is still about, I'd say 70 or more percent color left to the reel, but it's certainly rare.

Comes on 400ft reel. 15.00 dollars plus 4 dollars for shipping.

Please e-mail me if you would like it.

Just letting folks know that i listed this on ebay. The screenshots really don't do the print justice. It does have eastman fade, but it's not as bad as what is shown in the screenshots, but it's the best that can be done.

Here is the listing ...

Good luck with the sale, Osi. That's an interesting film, but I'm wondering if there's a misprint in the listing as you mention in the post above that this is on a 400ft reel.

I've just read the advert, if it's not a full 400ft, then it wouldn't run for 10 minutes.

Robert ...

The film runs over the 200ft reel a good deal. This was originally on a 400ft reel and while it didn't come to the very edge, it did fill it up enough so that it came within about a half inch from the very edge of the outer rim ..

So, I'm assuming about a ten minute run-time. It might be slightly shorter. [Smile]
