New find Attention Odean!
« on: August 26, 2009, 06:41:14 PM »
Gotten off craig's list for FREE.  It consists of test footage from Sikorsky helicopter, and rescue footage from the Red Cross during a very bad flood in the area in 1955. It's a mix of 16mm and 35mm about 30-40 reels most still in the can.  Most of it seems in very good condition the outside of the cans took some damage but the film itself is still good.  Just got it I'll check it out more just thought I would tell everyone about the piece of history I found.  By the way I will be in contact with you about how to handle this stuff

I have a 16mm projector  but not a 35mm I will be looking more into this stuff and posting more.  Fuck for all I know it could be one of the largest collections of movies from the flood of 55 around
