To commemorate Mickey 90th birthday I put all my Mickey 200 footers, with the heads and tails removed, onto one very full Elmo 1200ft reel. [Cool]

More screenings to come [Wink]

1...Steamboat Willie 1928.
2...The Band Concert 1935.
3...Mickey's Fire Brigade 1935.
4...Lonesome Ghosts 1937.
5...Brave Little Tailor 1938.
6...Mickey's Trailer 1938.
7...The Sorcerer's Apprentice 1940.

Most prints were bought new from Derann with excellent color and very good sound. [Cool]

Great to be able to sit back and watch almost an hours worth.

Happy 90th Birthday Mickey [Smile]

Great reel to run there Graham.

Its amazing its 90 years !!!

My son is hoping to pick up a few nice copies of these and other ones.

I have to be in the right mood for anaimation but do enjoy it when the right vibe gets me.

I wonder if they will be bring out 90th Blu Ray collections etc ?

Best Mark.

Hi Mark

I think there is a 90th Blu-ray release, although what I can gather its expensive.

I hope others here celebrated Mickey's 90th as well with some Super 8 films....

Here is a screen shot from the other night [Cool]

PS...I still have his 50th bought at the time of its release..

That is an excellent line up of many of Mickey's best, as his best years, (personal opinion) were the 30's.

Hello Graham. Really nice to see your list which took me back to the 60th anniversary party we gave over here, I also filmed it in Scope 8mm for posterity. This anniversary has also prompted me to scan it up in 2K as well. I blame Mickey for this! [Big Grin]
