Hi David, sent you an email - look forward to seeing the list.

Dave can you at least give a reel count---specifically those with film, and maybe how many silent and how many sound titles? It is hard to offer an amount for a collection when you don't know.....

1 - how many titles ?
2 - what are the titles ?
3 - what is the condition?
or anything else......

From the pictures and your descriptions I only know about Pathe Gazettes, North of Zanzibar (travelogue), This is Ontario (travelogue), Red box 100ft (often mute Disney's and mute Popeyes/betty boops) and White box 300ft (which can often be mute sound films)....A lot of empty reels, Irma La Douce (which is not 9.5), George Formby (which could be a mute sound film or a sound film)....

I just don't see how anyone can make an offer when you don't have any real indication as to what you are making the offer on? If there were a couple of choice titles I would make an offer for the lot just to get those titles

It's times like this that many members like David and myself included, wish that it were easier to post photos on this site. I'm sure that David would do so if this were the case. Better for all concerned and with today's technology it didn't ought to be a problem to upgrade to a simpler method of adding pictures.

I initially had difficulties uploading pictures too, then took the time to read the instructions on how to re-size in paint, and haven't had any troubles since then! Once you do a couple, its actually quite trouble-free...
