How many titles were released by Red Fox on Super 8mm film? I have Enter The Lone Ranger 2x400' and Triumph Of The Lone Ranger Episode 3 2x400. Thanks for any info.

Red Fox released the first four b^w episodes "Enter the Lone Ranger","The Lone Ranger Fights On","The Lone Ranger Triumphs","Legion of the Old Timers",the color episode from 1956 "Quicksand",plus the 1956 feature "The Lone Ranger". The first three episodes were in serial form,so as to be released in feature form in case the series did't sell.The series did sell but the "feature" was released later,perhaps on tv and I believe is also available from other sources. The second official feature "The Lone Ranger and the Lost City of Gold" was also released,shortened (3x400),in the Netherlands.

I have the color episode TWISTED TRACK but it is not in the original box....could this be Red Fox also?

I'm thinking that you're right Bill, I have "Twisted Track" as well, (as well as the feature), and I believe that they were Red Fox prints. Very sharp. One curious thing, have you noticed, Bill, that the beginning titles to "Twisted Track" have a faded look to them, but once you get to the actual episode, the color is really good?

There's one Super 8 Sound title Red Fox released, I am longing to find; Leon Errol's CUTIE ON DUTY (1943), the quintessinal Errol bedroomfarce short in my opinion - Also Red Fox released TREE IN A TEST TUBE, AN APPLE IN HIS EYE and others - I'm sure someone, maybe Doug, will post up a list - Shorty

Osi...I just got FIGHTS ON and TRIUMPHS that I plan on screening soon....I'll have to give TWISTED TRACK another look when I screen these, as I don't remember.
