Can anyone tell me if these are worth anything?

I have in a collection of 35mm tecnicolour film rushes roughly 2000ft maybe more from the following films

DR No

From Russia with Love

Goldfinger

Note that some of the footage has never been released or not included in the final edit.

Robert,

Interesting...if these are alternate takes that were never used they might be worth something. Is there audio?

Robert, Be careful of any copyright issues on those prints.

Kevin,

Yes I am aware of the copyright issues on these, it is a shame but would'nt it be nice to show them to an audience one day thou. Maybe at the next BFCC???

At the moment I am going off to Cardiff shortly with some 35mm film rushes of The Avengers, which might play a part in the series for ITV for Raiders of the Lost Archive. Which they are currently working on.

Yes Robert, good idea... bring them over to me and I'll ensure they get a good showing. You'll then be able to contact me afterwards... from Canada, or some other part of the world where I'll run off to with them!

Make sure you get a legal contract off any company that wants to use any of your rushes Robert. The buggers have a knack of getting away without coughing up a penny.

Robert, as Kev said be very carefull as EON are very hot on James Bond and considering that you do not own the rights to these rushes you could end up in all sorts of problems, I myself would not show these in public and exspecially at Ealing as these people go to these sort of functions just to see what is happening in the film collecting world.
