HI all, I am looking for Shirley Clarke's Cool World for purchase. I can get it here: http://shop.vendio.com/HARDTOFINDFILMS/ But not sure if it is legit (I feel certain it is not). I see Zipporah has it on VHS for $400 (that's all) and it is not available in DVD. From Worldcat most of the

This would be an interesting case for the reasonable price section of 108. It appears that Zipporah is the one and only legal distributor and that is their price and they do not have it in DVD. No doubt the folks and some institutions would decide they could just dub an old VHS to DVD or buy it

Wow, Dennis and Jessica, on a Sunday. Thanks. I do think it is a lot for a VHS that is likely being restored. Think I'll make a request. I'll try Karen, but it's a reach. Thanks so much, lorraine From: videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu [mailto:videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu] On Behalf

I believe you. I am just not so sure about other institutions including the folks you work with on the Carnegie project. Imagine a library that has a VHS now and thinks that it is deteriorating or just not convenient. Using 108 they decide $400 for a VHS is just not reasonable. On Sun, Sep 25,

Oops I cut that off early. They decide the $400 for a VHS is not reasonable so they just digitize it ( and heck in an increasing number of cases stream it too). This is not in my imagination, it is happening everyday in particular with distributors of small , non fiction films. On Sun, Sep 25,
