Vtg. Home Movies 8 MM Color Film Reels (3) Of 1956 Disneyland, Lake Tahoe Etc.
Item History & Price
Sorry, no International bidders for this auction
Greetings! I purchased these very nice clean canisters of COLOR 8 MM home movies at an Estate sale in Gustine, Ca (in Merced County) last year hoping to find me a movie projector. Sadly I was un-successful so now I am selling them
Unfortunately I can't provide you with any pictures of what is on each reel but I did my best to look through a jewelers lighted LED loop and I was able to see some frames of what that particula...r canister cover noted on the masking tape
So I have taken pictures of all of them, I believe they will show you how nice these are, and in my last photo I show just how clean one of them is inside
So here we go: in photo #6, that film title says 1956 Disneyland & Monrovia - El Segundo, Ca....I saw a 1950's Fastback Chevy at a Motel...and some frames of Rocket to the Moon ride and the Autotopia at Disneyland (that was enough to tell me the title is most likely correct)
Now in photo # 7 that film is titled Virginia City, Nevada...Tahoe City, Lake Tahoe, L.A. Airport 1961 Vacation.....I saw landscape of dried brush that you would see in Virginia City old towns (I have been there myself) and then people walking in front of old western town buildings, along with the famous Silver Queen in Virginia City
So now in photo #8 that is titled Vacation 1960 Disneyland & Marine Land along with Los Banos May Day parade 1959...Los Banos is in California off the 152 Highway from the Interstate 5 in Central California
This was harder to see what the frames showed but I could see it was a color film and had subjects and water like you would see at Marineland which I have also been to as a child back in those days! By this time my eyes were straining and my neck was hurting when trying to turn and maneuver the film strips to look at them
I also want to mention that I didn't unroll most of the reels, I just needed to see some examples that showed me this was indeed a family vacation according to the titles
PLEASE NOTE: This auction is a final sale "as found" auction however as for the condition you will be so happy with them, there are no rips, damage or stains that I could see
I WILL ACCEPT RETURNS only if the film does not have what is stated on the masking tape titles on each particular film cover. I am pretty sure you will be getting some great vintage footage of some fabulous vacation destinations
Shipping costs includes free tracking confirmation and Insurance up to $50.00....if the auction goes over that I will pay for the added coverage fee
SHIPPING DETAILS:
If your package shipping cost is mistakenly overcharged by 50 cents and up I will refund the amount
Tracking confirmation is free with Priority, Retail Ground, First Class or Media Mail. I charge a $2.00 Insurance fee and if more coverage is needed I make up that cost
I don't charge for the packing supplies of bubble wrap, tape, peanuts etc.
