Film is aprox. 300ft. in length & is wound on a 400ft vintage metal reel & comes in a vintage metal film can. Running time is aprox. 20 minutes.
I screened & viewed the entire film on vintage Bell & Howell projector for examination of the picture quality. Print is in very nice bright viewable condition with nice contrast.
The film has a magnetic sound track however I only have a silent regular 8mm projector to screen it on so I do not know how good the sound is on the film. However Im sure it's fine.
Film has new attached head & tail leaders & are ready to run.
The film has been in dry storage for many years.
Film is not dried out or brittle with nice sprockets & no warping. I do not detect/smell a vinegar odor in the film, However the film has not been tested with an AD Strip & is being sold as is un-tested.
When I hand rewound the film I found 1 splice. However please keep in mind that I can not guarantee that there are not a few more that I might have missed. Also there are some fine lines here & there.
The film appears to be complete with all titles, credits & end titles. I did not notice any missing footage. However I can not guarantee it.
Note to show condition I took many screen shots throught the screening of the film.
Film is pictured & described to the best of my ability & sold as is as found with no return or refund.
