Blockheads
Laurel and Hardy – B/W sound 3 x 400 ft from IE International 3 plastic library cases housed in a snap lock illustrated box. $60

Cabinet of Dr Caligari
B/W scored soundtrack 3 x 400ft reels in plain white boxes - $50

The Caddy
B/W sound 6x400 foot Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis. Good American print. $100

Days of Thrills and Laughter
B/W sound 5 x 400ft Robert Youngson compilation from Powell Films in the UK. $100

Grease. This is loaded onto a full 800 ft reel. The leader states Marketing Films, so it could be a joined up version of the 3 x 400 ft release. I watched the start on the beach scene and the title sequence. Colour more pale than faded but still good. Soundtrack fine. There is a scratch running down the extreme right hand side of the picture which I suspect might last for most of the print. However – if you are projecting onto a masked screen it would probably be eliminated from view. If you’re interested in this one I can watch it all and let you know how the whole print shapes up (not on a scratching projector I assure you) or you can make an offer as is!

Gulliver’s Travels
Colour sound on 2 x 800ft reels. This is an American print of the Fleischer animated film and has good sound, nice sharpness and better than faded colour. The title sequence is quite red but the shipwreck shows blues, yellows, good flesh tones and (contrasty) darks. Promising. $70

Our Relations
