I have a black-and-white, Super-8 sound print for sale. It is a 600' condensation of the 1938 British musical-comedy feature IT'S IN THE AIR. (If I remember correctly, it is a Derann print.)

The film stars the great comedian-singer-musician George Formby.

British comedy tends to be defined solely by Alec Guinness and the Ealing comedies. However, this is only half the story. George Formby (along with many others) represents the bawdy music hall tradition that constitutes the "other half" of British comedy.

The price is $65 shipping included.

I have to call foul on this one. Derann only reprinted features and trailers all color. They didn't do short B&W films. They existed for a short time to bring the theater experience home. This is not a Derann print.
