Hi Andreas.
Wow! How come I've never seen your site before. There is so much I want on there!
Are you happy to ship stuff to the U.K.?
My first order will be that Marketing print of Star Wars! Been after that for years!
EDIT - sorry, in all the excitment I didn't look at the shipping section! This site is really together! I think my credit card may be in for a tough time!!!

Most of what he sells is German-language prints released by former distributors such as UFA and Piccolo, but his website does have a section for films with original sound. I agree, though, the site is great.

I have had some great titles from Andreas. If he says a title is Mint "A" condition then believe me it is. Dont forget also that some of the cartoon titles such as the Disneys do have english sound even though the titles may be in German. Great web site Andreas, Busting with even more titles since I visited it last. Dont forget I'm still after that Optical sound German print called "DB"

-------------------- GS1200 Xenon with Elmo 1.0...great combo along with a 16-CL Xenon for that super bright white light.
I say about me that I am a dealer AND a collector. Over 50% of german "collectors" I know, are also dealer but they would not say about themselve that they make deals with buying and selling 8mm, but they do.
The website is not designed by me. I used the open source php-code from "Oscommerce".
Everybody can download and use it for selling Flowers, DVD´s, Jeans, Tea ........ and...... Super8mm".
I noticed that there are two listings for the Star Wars Films by Marketing Inc., one is listed at a lower price than the other. Can you please provide details to these extracts, and how much footage will I be able to add to the original Ken Films 2 part extracts which I own. For instance, does this version have an extended light sabre scene with Darth Vader and Obi Wan Kenobi? The Ken films version was dramatically edited.
I have an interest in these films, and hopefuly both are not claimed, but if they are available, I would like to know how much more to expect in storyline to the current extracts which would extend the Ken Films versions footage?
I tried to email you, but was blocked. Can you please contact me off line?
Thanks for your help. Michael

I have one little mistake in my database, which I have corrected now. The polyprint was 38,50 EUR and is already sold. The acetat print is the cheaper print because a part of the fox-logo is missing.
It is a long time ago that I have had the first Ken Film extract. But I remember that the marketing film version shows nearly the same storyline but is about 10 minutes longer.
That´s the reason why UFA sold only the second KEN extract in Germany and not the first one. I remember that there was a few scenes in the first extract which were not shown in the marketing version.
So the marketing-version (acetat) plus the second Ken-Extract (polyester) mixed together have a playing time of about 42 minutes. A little bit more if scenes from the first Ken extract are also spliced in.
The picture quality of the marketing version is far better, but also flat (not widescreen).
Obi Wan Kenobi dead is also edited in the german version.
Andreas
PS: I have a already mixed marketing/Ken extract2 on one 600 feet and one 400 feet reel for sale, but not listed. Have to check the second reel first.
