I'll bite- I seem to have missed the earlier announcement. Is the current owner 
just looking for shipping costs and a tax id number? Could you send me the 
original email that contains the info? We have two film studies courses here, 
and one department still has their 16mm projectors in use.

Thanks!

Subject: [Videolib] I'm trying to find a home for a few dozen 16mm films of 
older features and shorts

I'm told the films are in excellent condition - from the collection of
the manager of a noted DC repertory theater.  From what I can tell
most of these have been released on DVD.

The one stipulation is that they have to go to a 501c institution.

Except a few that may be PD, most won't have pub performance rights
conferred.  I don't have an electronic version of the list but among
the dozens of titles are: Dames (Busby Berkeley); Horsefeathers;
Killer Ape; Metropolis; Monkey Business; The More the Merrier; Triumph
of the Will; and shorts including: La Jetee; Regen (Ivens); Sex Life
of a Polyp (Benchley)

I'm afraid it's an all or nothing deal. No cherrypicking. Shipping
will be negotiated.

Any takers?
