Hi i have the 350ft fletcher digest of the 1977 film come play with me starring mary millington but on the back of the box it says 2 reel colour sound.The number on the spine is F1, is there another part possibly F2 as i cant seem to find any info.Does anyone have part 2 ?.

With 8mm, 2-reel often means 400 ft as one reel is considered to be 200 ft. Could it mean that?

Yes,there is a part 2,400 (well,350) feet.

Both going for a high price on ebay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Come-Play-With-Me-Playbirds-2-X-400ft-Super-8mm-Sound-Boxed-Rare/323734448964?hash=item4b6013ab44:g:MsgAAOSweZ9ciKpI

Yes leonard i also thought that aswell.There is no mention of a part 1 anywhere on the box and it doesnt say part 1 on the leader.So if there are 2 parts to this and assuming the cover artwork is the same unless the number on the spine is different there is no way of telling the difference if one comes up on ebay.
