A Gift from Norway

#1 by Timothy Duncan ( deleted ) , Tue Apr 05, 2016 2:54 pm

A BIG THANK YOU goes out to Vidar Olavesen! Our forum founder has sent me a gift all the way from Norway to the U.S.! Yesterday, I received a box of film goodies from him in order to help me with expanding my collection! Vidar has a good heart and I think he ought to be acknowledged for what he has done. Included in the box were several Walt Disney reels, a couple of Laurel and Hardy films (my favorite of the lot!) including a 400' sound reel of "Live Ghosts", a 400' sound reel of "Shalako", a 2x400' reel set of "The Jerk", and a 200' silent/subtitled reel of "Master of the World". Hopefully, as time permits, I can get screenshots when I begin to watch these. This lot should keep me off of eBay for awhile (LOL!) ;-) Thank you again Vidar!

Diamond Geezer is our Vidar! Well done mate.

Enjoy Timothy!

BTW "The Jerk" is a great cutdown and quite a funny film to boot!

Vidar: You the man as they say here in the States! Lots of films to keep your projector happy and humming along for a long time Tim.

I'm astounded by the generosity of collectors I've met since entering the hobby! Both Doug and Vidar (of our own forum) are to be commended!

Timothy that was thoughtful and kind of Vidar sending those films on to you.
Its a shame you were not here in Scotland and collected 35mm as you could have
had some feature films from me for free.

Vidar is a lovely man, we are blessed really, although I still think he has a protection racket or Bank robbery on the go.
