I am not aware if there is another Snow White but the seller's description make me confuse:

SUPER 8MM SOUND MOVIE--SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS--BLACKHAWK FILMS

So do you think this is a Disney print? from Derann? Blackhawk? or other companies?

If so that $89 is quite a steal price for this title.

Hopefully Gian bought it. He's been looking for this version. It's printed on low fade but the original material is16mm so quality is questionable. Not Derann, or any of the above.

Snow White (Disney) was never put out by Blackhawk Films. This could be the incorrect photo or box? I doubt it is the Disney version. [Confused]

The four reels are 400 ft.The boxes are plain white ones. Only the packing box is Blackhawk.So,Derann it is not.Maybe an italian copy or another version from elsewhere.

It is not from Italy. It is from the US.

If it's Blackhawk, it is probably the full length silent feature of "Snow White" that Disney himself said he watched in the silent era and was one of his main influences for his later feature film!

Might be silent, but the seller says it's sound ... He hasn't seen it though

Posted by Larry Arpin (Member # 744) on March 29, 2013, 07:55 PM:

It's sound and it's the 1937 Disney version. Not Derann, not Blackhawk. This super 8mm version was released in the US somewhere between 1982 & 1986. It is printed on low-fade stock with pre-striped magnetic stripe. I am very familiar with this version. Famous Films also sold copies.

Can you share anything else about this version Larry? How does it compare to the Derann release?
