Received an e-mail with information on the latest project that FPS is doing in conjunction with MoMA, attached is a link providing further information to the site and information pertaining to the release, one of the things the the FPS is dedicated to is preservation of the Biography Shorts , some of which will be included as bonus features.

Hopefully this will be of benefit to some of the other fans of silent films,

Douglas Fairbanks Sr was one amazing guy!! If 3 Muskeers in production/restoration, I hope Adventures of Robin Hood and Mark of Zorro will be next in line...

I would love Robin Hood, for as good as the Errol Flynn version is, I prefer the Fairbanks version even more. It would be awesome to have that version on BluRay as the only time I've watched it was from a beat up print.

and the fact that Alen Hale played Little John in both versions is a mind blower for me!!!

What a fascinating read, thank you the education, and the fact that after a 100 plus years, technology may once again be able to display these at the resolution at which they were filmed. The YouTube views of the shorts are amazing.
