Hi Joe, I got your email and thank you for the offer. I would like to thank everyone actually for their insight and help.
I have located an Elmo projector! So I will be viewing all these films in a few days and start taking detailed description of the films, I will be with a gentleman that has been collecting for 40 years and knows his way around films. His primary intrest is in 16mm film but I am sure he qualifies as an expert.

As for returns, I am going to have to say no. However, movies that offers are made on I will do complete views and give a very detailed description on the condition, and major points that you guys like to know about. Leaders, credits, color, etc.

I will take video and pics with my phone, A galaxy s2, and email to all that inquire.

Currently I have offers on 5 of the movies and I will be viewing them first. Once again I can not thank everyone enough!

I will post pics in the morning of Roustabout for you Joe and I will give more details as I gather them.

Since everyone here has quotes, this just happens to be one of my all time favorites,

"Never get out of the boat. Absolutely goddamn right. Unless you were goin' all the way. Kurtz got off the boat. He split from the whole f*#kin' program."

Have a good night everyone.

The 3 Elvis prints are Viacom magnetic sound prints. I have seen a lot of these. There very sharp focus, but usually have fair to good color. If one of you Elvis prints has the original lab leader, you will see Viacom printed near the start. I have these 3 Elvis titles and mine match your scans with the yellow perf edge.

High Noon is probably a Niles print. I have one of these and it is a great print! Sharp with good contrast.

Last Train is more than likely a Viacom print. Great movie. The color is usually fair to good. Mag sound.

The Music Box could be a Blackhawk or Walton. Both good prints.

That's one of my favorite quotes among S#@tter's full and 'If I walked the movie would be over' (Spaceballs).

Hey everyone, the results are in and......they are great, I have the following ready for your consideration.

Roustabout
Blue Hawaii
Gi blues
Music Box

Last train to gun hill has been purchased already. Please email me and I will forward you an email with screen shots, condition, and description that my new best friend :) has put together for me. Some of these emails are large 25mb or so because of the pictures. All I can say, I am amazed, that after all this time these are in this kind of condition.

I look forward to your emails.

Thank you
Mike
