Anyone know of anybody who has any Super 8mm 600ft card feature boxes?
Just like the ones Derann used to pack their full length films in.
I am avidly looking for both these and plain white card boxes in the 600ft and 200ft sizes.

I have 1200ft card boxes should anyone ever require any BTW.

Classic Home Cinema has 600' but sadly not white

Yes thanks Vidar, I know Phil is an outlet for coloured Classic logo boxes, but preferably, I just want plain white card if possible.

Also, it is the feature boxes I am most anxious to locate if at all possible.

I miss that dude who did them all. John something, but he stopped. Cinesupplies I think he was calling his company

I don't mean to state the obvious or sound clever, but if we can get some white card we can use a 600' or any other size
to make our own by using it as a template Remember Pat D'Alessio from 8mm forum, he was a dab hand at making quality boxes, and like Andrew made his own labels to suit, result beautiful bespoke containers.

Quite correct Hugh but for me personally, I'd want around 50 x 600ft feature boxes and around 150x 600ft single card boxes.

I am down to my last Derann feature box and also my last two single 600ft box.

While I don't mind hours and hours doing the art for these, with my recording ventures taking up much of my spare time plus actually watching and enjoying them all, plus maintaining all 5 of my most used projectors...I feel,for me personally, making boxes would be one pursuit too many,for me at least.

Hi to all collectors, My name is Richard, also known as BIGRICH, I have been collecting and using cine since I was 3 years old, on ebay we are known as BettysBargains - YOU WILL ALSO KNOW ME FROM DERANNS CONVENTIONS WHERE I USED TO ATTEND YEARS AGO WITH MY WIFE KYM AND ALSO HAD STALLS, I USED TO SUPPLY ENTERTAINMENT AND HELP DERANN FOR A FEW YEARS, MY VERY GOOD FRIEND NORMAN WANSTALL SPFX ON GOLDFINGER OSCAR WINNER CAME DOWN TO MEET COLLECTORS TOO.

I KNOW SUCH A LOT OF YOU BY FACE AND A LOT BY NAME TOO

JUST A QUICK QUESTION TO ALL YOU 8MM FILM COLLECTORS, I NEED A LOT OF NEW CARDBAORD BOXES FOR 8MM AND I AM CURRENTLY IN THE MIDST OF MAYBE CLOSING A DEAL IN NEW 8MM FILM BOXES, ALL WHITE CARD SIMILAR TO DERANNS TYPE, 200FT, 400FT AND 600FT.

I AM TESTING THE WATER REALLY, I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO HELP COLLECTORS TOO, BUT I NEED TO HAVE THOUSANDS MADE AND I JUST WONDERED IF THE PRICE WAS RIGHT, WOULD TRUE COLLECTORS LIKE YOURSELVES BE INTERESTED IN PURCHASING ANY NEW BOXES AND ALSO IN WHAT QUANTITIES, THIS WILL GIVE ME A ROUGH IDEA, SO PLEASE FEEL FREE TO PASS THE INFORMATION ON.

THE PRICES IDEALLY 2OOFT APPROX 40p each 400FT APPROX 60p each and 600ft APPROX 75p each - MINIMUM ORDER WOULD HAVE TO BE OF 25 OF EACH KIND - POSTAGE AT COST TOO, SO THE MORE YOU PURCHASED THE CHEAPER POSTAGE WOULD BE

PRICES COULD BE 10% HIGHER OR 10% LOWER DEPENDING ON QUANTITIES AGREED TO BE MADE

KYMSKAVE@AOL.CO.UK

ANYWAY ALL MY BEST WISHES TO YOU AND YOURS, LET ME KNOW ASAP IF THERE WOULD BE AN INTEREST, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO PASS THIS ON TO OTHER MEMORABILIA FILM FORUMS AND YOUR FILM FRIENDS

CHEERS BIGRICH

I look for boxes, but not in the thousands. 1200', 800' are of more interest, as CHC has the others, sadly not white though

How many do you need to sell if you make an order? I could do some 30 to 50 each, depending on price

Thanks for joining. Sent you a PM regarding name

THANKS FOR SAYING HELL VIDAR

NO, I WOULD HAVE TO HAVE THOUSANDS DONE NOT YOU

ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE, FEATURE BOXES, 1200FT BOXES 800FT BOXES, BUT WE WOULD HAVE TO HAVE 2000 OF EACH ONE MADE, ANYTHING LESS WOULD MAKE THEM TOO EXPENSIVE, I AM JUST FEELING MY WAY TO SEE IF THERE IS A DEMAND AND IT IS WORTH MAKING A GO OF HAVING SOME MADE, IT MAY BE TOO LATE IN THE HISTORY OF 8MM BUT THESRE MUST BE OTHER COLLECTORS THAT NEED THEM, THANKS FOR YOUR MESSAGE

PRICES FOR THE 200FT,400FT AND 600FT WERE ON THE FIRST MESSAGE

CHERS BIGRICH

Hello Richard, nice to speak with you for the first time.

I would want 600ft and 600ft feature Boxes. Not hundreds but may well take up to 100 if you had either of these made.

I use Bonum boxes for 800ft films and have still about 20 spare reels and cans so I'm ok on that front for the foreseeable and I myself purchased all of a sellers 1200ft boxes so I have a lifetimes amount of those.

But certainly the 600 ft ones mentioned above as well as few 200ft boxes would be extremely handy for me if you were to supply them.

The feature ones in particular would be superb as I don't know of any supplier of these now.

Best regards Richard,
Andrew.

BigRich, your CAPS is stuck to on ;-)

HI ANDREW, THANKS FOR THE KIND REPLY AND AN IDEA OF YOUR WANTS
WILL TALK AGAIN SOON, BEST WISHES RICHARD

HI TOO VIDAR, YES YOU CAN CHANGE NAME, EVERYBODY KNOW ME AS BIG RICH, BUT MY FULL NAME IS RICHARD READ, MY DISABILITY PREVENTS AND MAKES IT HARD TO TYPE AS ORDINARY, IT IS EASIER FOR ME TO TYPE IN CAPITALS, I HOPE THATS OK, I DO NOT DO IT TO OFFEND
I CANT CHAT TOO MUCH TONIGHT BUT I THOUGHT I WOULD REPLY TO YOU SO YOU KNEW I HAD THE MESSAGE, ALL MY BEST WISHES RICHARD BIG RICH

Sure, not a problem at all. Sorry if that was inappropriate of me

Thanks, I changed the name and remember to login next time with Richard Read. (I hope Caps is okay on this, if not, let me know and I change it to uppercase)

Point taken Andrew, on that scale, it would be a Herculean task.

Forums don't get friendlier than this.

Indeed.
