Hi,
I won this item on Ebay
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230733329704&ssPageName=ADME:B:EOIBSA:GB:1123
Elvis on Ed Sullivan 2x 200ft or 400ft reels with sound. Not sure of the reel size as the listing doesn't say.
Anyone have any info on this at all? looks like it was an "Unofficial" release back in the day maybe.

That's 400 ft as far as I can tell. Haven't seen these before, make sure to keep us updated :-)

By seeing the picture, think they are 2 x 400'

I have this film on 2*400 foot reels. I don't know who released it, but the picture and sound quality are quite good. It's all 3 of Elvis's appearances in the Ed Sullival Show (2 from 1956 and one from 1957). Some of the songs are repeated.
If they are 2*400 foot reels that you won, you got it for a good price. I've seen it on dealers lists for £25 - £35

Yes Phil, I received them today and they are indeed the 400ft reels. They are in excellent condition, so I think I did very well.
