Thank you so much for the scan, Doug! I don't have a KEN catalog that lists the titles they issued. Yes, Winbert, they are all silent. On "Haunted House" the subtitles are the all caps type that appear in a big black box that obliterates the bottom of the picture ( I hate this type - Columbia used the same style on their silent titles and it's terrible). The text usually in no way matches up to what is being said (artistic license, I presume). Good thing I have the sound versions from CABIN FEVER from about 10 years ago. It's just I'm one of those collectors that can't just have an incomplete library - I'll collect the silent, the sound, the 50', the 200', the 400' and the 3X400' versions. Sometimes I'll even buy european versions (in english only) of digests simply because I know the scene selection will often differ. I don't do this randomly - I pretty much stick to certain genres and performers (ie: Our Gang, L&H, A&C, Universal Monsters, etc.), but once I get hooked on something I can sometimes be rather o.c.d. about making certain a collection is complete. The wife thinks its a little cuckoo. Luckily I'm patient and methodical about how I apply the finances to satisfy my compulsion.
