Nice find Tom.

Ref fade on LPP, I've been saying it for years on forums but no one took it seriously, I've had The Fog and Never Ending Story,Die Hard,Raise the Titanic along with a few others that had fade, not pink/red but the black had started to get the red hue, Never Ending story was the worst,Mark

If its film, it will happen, I have read about a few copies of neverending story. But as a positive, there are tons of good low fade films out there and many old fuji and Agfa colour prints that will outlast many a collector, thats the main thing .

The point is its low fade not no fade, Mark

A scoop of trailers.
Today I recieved a great box from the postman containing 10 reels (11 trailers). As per images, this is an excellent collection in itself and to say I'm pleased with my purchase is a huge understatement. There is also a 50ft spool containing an Odeon intermission dayset, an excellent Christmas dayset, (happy holidays) and The Queen, end of show National anthem.
During the coming days I will review each one for Eivinds database but for today, I gave each one a very quick filmguard treatment and viewed the mall, each one has 1st class image and sound and are all in very good condition.

I collected these six films from a nearby collector yesterday. I haven't had time to look at them yet. From posted pictures at an auction, the colors are very good.

Here is what I brought back from Blackpool 😊

What is that? Christmas Vacation?

Trailer ads reel 3 I think Vidar, Worth it for the Christmas vacation trailer alone.

Who released that THE FLYING DEUCES, Eivind? Is that the Walton release? Mine is from them; great quality but slightly edited down from 69 minutes to just under an hour.

Mine is a Niles print, not sure of Running time, but 4d400’ too

I am not sure. I don't think this was the original box and I can't see any name of a distributor. When I search for it I see that both Mountain Films and Derann had a 4x400.

The Elephant Never Forgets is a wonderful short.

Finally found these two. Unfortunately not at Blackpool which I couldn't make this year.

You get another chance next year, Martin! :-) Would be great to see you again!

Just acquired a copy of Derann's copy of Tyburn Films - The Ghoul - starring Peter Cushing and John Hurt - from Independent 8 - looking forward to screening it tomorrow.

I saw the Ghoul on TV years ago, anything with Peter Chushing is going to be good on 8mm. (or 16)

It is released on DVD according to Amazon

Thanks.

Another case of an eBay seller LYING to make a sale.

On super 8, Goldfinger feature,A View To A Kill opener,Christmas trailers No3 and 3x400 Death Wish,some very generous Christmas presents, screenshots to follow when they are projected,Mark

Mountain Films released "The Flying Deuces" F/L on 4x400' reels, quite a nice print too, I believe for a short time they shared the rights with Walton on a few L&H films, as I know they released a F/L print of "Way Out West" as well.

Billy Connolly, Big Banana feet, British theatrical print with "AA" certificate opening. Filmed during his Northern Ireland tour in the late 70s before he became a huge international comedy star.
This is a low fade print so looking forward to viewing this, as far as I can see it isn't available on any other format.
This film shows behind the scenes as well as on stage so is more of a documentary. It contains many of his comical songs and stories he hasn't done in many years.

Tom, I'm guessing its 16mm?

Graham, yes sorry,16mm

Another 16mm on the way, Crimson tide. Really looking forward to this one.
