8MM-16MM FORUM WORLDWIDE

Film Collectors Convention, Wildwood , NJ Oct 15-16

In honor of John Black, a great friend of small gauge film collecting who passed away this June, we are continuing his CineSea film shows in Wildwood, New Jersey.

CineSea 4 will take place on Saturday, October 15th and Sunday, October 16th, 2011.

This is an event that is solely for film collectors. As John said, "No more will you have to fight past crowds surrounding a washed up 70's sitcom star, or pass miles of dealer tables filled with action figures, toys and other items unrelated to film. This is about 8mm, 16mm, 35mm film and equipment. It’s a chance for collectors to get together for a weekend of buying, swapping showing and talking about films. This will be the only such show in the U.S.."

CineSea 4 will be held at The Ocean Holiday Resort
6501 Ocean Avenue
Wildwood Crest, NJ 08260

Hours: Saturday 10 – 5, Sunday 9 - 2. After a dinner break on Saturday there’ll be screenings till ……whenever!

Dealers:
6 foot dealer tables are available for $20. You can rent as many as you like. Compared to other shows, this is an incredibly low price.

Lou Franchetti will be there and he’ll have tables overflowing with 8mm and 16mm.

John felt very strongly about having these shows. He wrote, “This show is being done for all of us still hanging onto our collection of films and equipment. It’s a great way to get to know each other and pick up some bargains. No bidding up, no last minute sniping, see the film before you buy it! We will be screening film all night long! This is a very non-formal show, so if you want to run one of your films, go ahead! If you feel the need to escape for a few hours, Atlantic City is 30 minutes away. We will be oceanfront, so enjoy the ocean right out the door. The only rule of this show is to have fun!"
