200ft Chaplin - Only £69

[Maurice Leakey]

Some eBay sellers do seem to think that as a film is 9.5mm it's worth a lot of money. Here is the 200ft version of Chaplins "Between Showers" priced at £69. This 1914 Keystone production was first issued by Pathescope in January 1936. I am sure all enthusiasts will have this in their collection and I can't think that the seller will be bowled over with requests to purchase.

Pathescope nearly always shortened their releases. This 200ft M reel will run for around 8 minutes, what a pity it was not released as an SB title of 300ft in length, after all, the original only ran for 11 minutes.
