I knew about the Beatles Decca. I worked for Decca in 1971. EMI & Decca used to cross distribute each others products around UK for a time.

Bert had a great German swing band and let us at about 56 years old.

No trouble playing ALL discs in my country no matter what the Region Code.

Three Stooges: Yes they have on Blu Ray as extras on some Powerhouse Columbia sets. I have them. Lots more to go, though.

Ordered direct a few days ago, Note that the last title is listed as SD format only. There seems to be no Three Stooges shorts in this box set like previous recent Columbia/Powerhouse sets.

Amazon supplied all three formats to me in Australia last year, no sweat.

AKA Hoppity Goes to Town

I have been saying that about Copper Canyon(1950) for a long time. There are still a few post-1949 Paramounts still not on Blu Ray yet from this period.

Dixon of Dock Green was a long running British TV police station series going from b&w to color and all starring English comedian Jack Warner who originated the Dixon role on The Blue Lamp (Ealing 1950). Dixon became the oldest serving police officer!!!! The UK series never screened in Australia...

Now for MGM's The Big House (Wallace Beery, 1930) in three language versions.

Mammy laserdisc was faulty with a long join down the middle. A Jolson fan had preciously seen the film in London and there was no line like the Laserdisc version. Also the color was found and in the DVD version

Ordered a few hours ago. Via Vision is local to me and free delivery.

I even had a 16mm film copy bought in the 1970s from a producer who acquired a collection from a distributor who suicided, I think. The Police in Northern Ca found my friend's details and contracted him and told him to come up and take the haul. Good quality it was too and I had never seen it...

Ordered this set just now.

Great stuff. More wanted.

Yes, near on 20 plus years ago when I ordered a Buster Keaton set of 2 from Dave's Laser in LA(remember them?) on the Kino company then before Lorber came into it. It was stretched wrap but one was missing. It was replaced. Wrong discs inside and other people's orders thru Amazon happened and...

Shirley Temple's first teenage film was, in fact, Edward Small's Miss Annie Rooney in 1942. A colorized VHS had even been issued. A 20s film for Mary Pickford, Fox later had bought this comic strip story for Jane Withers that morphed into Ginger(1935). The Marker song, Son of a Gun, is sung by...

I believe Mr Peppers was found at the time in someone's garage, not the best place to store any type of film or tape.

Direct with them for both US$80 but in the cart it only shows US or Canada delivery areas. I don't live in either. Already there are offers for huge amounts of money. The shipping costs across USA included is about US$83.65 under Media Mail option this weekend for a package with the UHD & Blu...

Was in the MCA Paramount package when first released to TV in my country. Always wanted a disc but none so far but at least I saw the first TV screening.

He was a close friend of Leonard Maltin who wrote a length eulogy today. There is footage via Maltin to a reel of snippets from the Letterman Show.

Well, Wade Williams is out of the loop as he has been dead a few weeks now. Who knows what his family will do or are doing with his shelved films in the Kansas area, I believe.

More than passable and will buy. I loved the play script when I read it as a boy when play volumes were available during 1950s-60s. Haven't seen those volumes since.

Keep in mind that the films were meant to be destroyed after a certain date by Columbia(10 years?) in the deal with King Features Syndicate(Hearst). The King Features package foolishly altered the head/tail graphics and music for TV presentation. Never understand these things. Columbia had a...
