KNIGHTS OF THE BATH

A true collector, even when he is done finding every film in his collection and wants, is never truly done collecting, as he will seek out better copies of the very prints that he has, eh Shorty?

Thanks, Joe - But I should have made it clear I'm only of a mind towards the cardboard box editions - Case in point, KNIGHTS is a white box depicting A&C as plumbers - Osi, always true - Eventually one will have 3, even four prints of a particular title and wheel it down to the 2 to be kept - Some keep them all just for variation - Important to always keep those Std 8 prints, no matter what updates come in Super 8 - The first prints to be available to collectors in 8mm, and they are almost always sharp - Shorty

I have to thank Shorty for getting me back into collecting standard 8mm as, in many cases, the standard 8mm copy is truly better ...

However, in my case, one beautiful copy is usually enuf for me. Now, to find one of those lovely Eumig P8's again for my now growing standard 8mm collection! [Frown]

Didn't expect the answer on here, but thanks Shorty! [Smile]

Shorty,

I know it's not the box you want but I'd grab KNIGHTS if I were you.

No one bid on KNIGHTS!

and since its the 200ft version its a castle version universal did not put out 200fters just repackaged the castles in their boxes then when a film shows up in a box nab that too.

I have KNIGHTS, but just wanting to upgrade the box, and it has to be the white colorful one, not the red generic one

Posted by Joseph Randall (Member # 4906) on April 26, 2016, 09:18 PM:

That's a horse of a different color.

Passquale ...

Were you referring to "Cinderellas Cinders"? I looked on ebay but I didn't see a single one.
