They got matches, sitting on a powder keg, light a match around that still and see how big of a mess they are going to have, this release is one of my top 5 awaiting for the year!
love that newsletter, and many great things looking forward, also i just wanted to add thank ClassicFlix for creating that O.' Henry Playhouse site, so informative and more so that there is a link on the episode where you can go and read the original short stories that the episode was adapted from,
Cue up the REO Speedwagon "Tough Guys" for that audio cue for the next week or so to get you over till we are all discussing Volume 6 and awaiting more great news on those silents.
so just as a visual cue, though some may enjoy this photo

Joe and Wheezer!
David,
a total of 88 silents were produced the first 66 Roach Pathé Silents followed by 22 Roach MGM Silents, out of that total, 5 of them are considered to have no copies are known to exist. By that math alone the 25 completed would be 1/3 of the way done with all of the...
That individual that walks back in the warehouse, pulls the item from the shelf or bin, wraps the package in bubble wrap and then puts it in a box or a envelop and sends it off with a tracking number and then updates the inventory count, that's a shipping clerk :D.
Sounds like an extremely...
I also can vouch for ordering directly from them. There are plenty of times that I clicked the link that Ron has posted on here because it helps the HTF, but with some of the smaller Boutique labels, this one is especially.
I feel the need to order directly from them that way all funds go...
mine showed up yesterday, and forced myself to limit it to only one short, thinking I might do that for the whole set, so when is Vol 2 coming out, end of the month :D
still waiting on the USPS to at least get my copy out of the state of California, my first shipping notice was the 28th with a delivery of the 4th, well that has past and it still is stuck in L.A. so when it does get here I will have to play catch-up on the shorts. Just know that at the moment...
Been waiting a long, long, long time for the silent. Remembering years ago that Laughsmith Entertainment was working on a project of them, called Our Gang: Before the Laughter, but for some reason that project died.
If memory serves me correctly, there is 80 or 88 of the silent ones, and it...
already stated that I love the cover, but that inside pick really makes it, real kids just playing on the lot, look at Harry's missing teeth, :D priceless.
come December, when people are talking about great releases of the past year, why do i get the feeling this is going to be in the running or short list for release of the year. :D
I forgot how great that limburger cheese gag is.
thanks for keeping us informed,
what ClassicFlix had done in reverence to the Hal Roach titles should make everyone extremely happy, not just the Our Gang shorts, but also the Streamliners, and the Thelma Todd and Patsy Kelly comedies.
interested to see what other Roach titles may appear...
as if I already wasn't having a ClassicFlix overload, Hal Roach Streamliners: Westerns last night and finally spinning up The Marx Bros. Night in Casablanca earlier this morning, and of course, both looking great.
Viewed the clip and it's wonderful, but then i had already expected it to be...
agreed, and put in my pre order as well, and let be one of the first to say, that I am absolutely loving that cover, nice to see something other than the later group of Spanky and Alfalfa represented,
