Wish I could help you....I have 15 of the titles and I need Electric Earthquake and Destruction Inc. The only double I have I think is Volcano. Good luck finding them. There was an auction recently on eBay with 10 titles and both of the ones I needed were there but I missed out on it.

Jim, it sounds like you have a nice collection of Superman cartoons. Are these on low fade stock? If so, what companies released them?

Well I'll chime in with what I have. I am a big fan of Superman and I love these cartoons. I have one Niles release with good color, most of the other Niles are faded or red. Some are also B&W. I also have some RedFox prints with nice color and one by Canterbury that has good color. I would guess that the good color ones are low fade but I don't know for sure. I have not examined the stock to closely to know. I don't know if any other company put them out or not.

My copy of Volcano from Canterbury Films (Cine Magnetics lab) is on Eastman and starting to fade to pinkish tones.

is there a reason Niles made a few titles in b/w or was that an option when buying either b/w or color?

Jason, are you sure they were from Red Fox? or they are just homed inside Red Fox boxes? Could you check the leader please.

I am afraid they are actually from Niles Films.

Winbert, the three faded films are in Red Fox boxes but I would have to check the leaders to know for sure if they are Red Fox. I'll let you know.
