Re: Warner's All-Star Musicals on sale
Amazon Deal of the Day: 3 DVD collection of THIS IS THE ARMY (43), THANK YOUR LUCKY STARS (43) and HOLLYWOOD CANTEEN (44) going for $10 bucks. That's 75% off. Even if you don't care for all of these films (I get rather bored with Berlin's soldier show), it's still worth it. Well now, don't bother t...

Re: Unidentified monty banks and sid smith
That's Sid Smith allright, and Bill Blaisdell playing the Cop, it's early 20's Monty Banks too before he got a little stockier, will look into this, as I 'm sure Steve will too.

Re: MACK SENNETT COLLECTION VOL 1 Blu-Ray
I'm almost embarrassed to admit this -- but only two years ago I sold a 16mm print of BERTH MARKS on eBay for $656. It was a common Blackhawk sound print with their remade titles. No MGM credits, not the Governor TV print, not the now-scarce silent version -- it was nothing special. You could tell ...

Re: MACK SENNETT COLLECTION VOL 1 Blu-Ray
Richard M Roberts I have a spare print of BLACK OXFORDS I might let you have for $300. Unless you're joking, is that the average price for a 16mm silent comedy two-reeler print? Pasquale I'm joking, but in the case of a reasonably rare print, and two nutjobs on ebay determined to get it, you used t...

Re: MACK SENNETT COLLECTION VOL 1 Blu-Ray
Up to seven five-star reviews so far, and number seven is from our own Ed Watz!
Thank You Ed, and say, I have a spare print of BLACK OXFORDS I might let you have for $300.

Re: Billy West King Bee / Billy Whiskers
The only King Bee I recall with a monkey in it is THE BAND MASTER (1917), is it a smaller,organ-grinders type monkey or a chimp? It's literally an organ-grinders monkey in THE BAND MASTER whom Billy brings to a swank party to prove the Organ Grinder is crashing the party. There were scenes in the ki...
