Hi all,
Just wanted to put another reminder out that Providence Community Library (
http://www.provcomlib.org) in Providence, RI is still very eager to take
your old 16mm films (and 8mm, super 8, 35mm!) off of your hands and out of
your basements, closets, and storage areas!

I am starting to accumulate a massive amount of 16mm titles...to the
point now that I'm ending up with multiple prints of some. This is a
good thing, as I'm always looking to own the best or most complete
print possible, but does give me somewhat of a storage space crunch.
Off the top of my head,
I have not had to fill out any paperwork thus far but am always happy to do
so. Mostly it's been a "I don't care what you do, just get these things OUT
of here!" kind of deal!

Hi all,
I believe that the original 1922 version of Haxan is a public domain title.
However, I have a 16mm print of the 1968 re-release titled "Witchcraft
Through The Ages" which has narration by William Burroughs and a jazz score
added on to it. It was originally produced and distributed by Antho
Kino.

Dear list,
I've recently been talking to the owner of the local indie / art house
cinema here in town about the library hosting a film series there using our
16mm prints. Since we don't have money to pay for licensing outside
