Steve: prob still can find those "Bell

Science" 16mm series through 16mm groups, et.al.
And some of them were pressed on IB tech stock.


I already have 6 of the Series that I've owned since

the 80's. They are all in the Blue Turn Lock Plastic

Cases with the Bell Telephone Emblem on them. The

Titles I don't have are "It's About Time" and "The

Alphabet Conspiracy" 4 of the series Titles have

been on DVD for a number of years. I highly suggest

that people buy them and see how Good these

Productions were and how they still hold up

today...Titles are "Our Mr. Sun" -"Hemo the

Magnificent"- "Strange Case of the Cosmic Rays"

and "Unchained Goddess" All Excellent Films...

I hope this Link goes to the Projector Album; I have

over 2000 public pictures on Goggle so you could

run into just about anything. You have to click on

about the 50th thumbnail when it shows more or you

only see half the Pics. Big Surprise Buck you might

be in one of the Photos [Wink]

Of course they hold up over time... when you stop to consider that some of those Bell System films were directed by Frank Capra!!

I have one Bell Science episode on Rhino VHS: "Strange Case of the Cosmic Rays."

My mother used to work for "Ma Bell", and if I wanted to see these films, she could order them at her work. Thus, I could borrow our church's B&H 185 and watch these films at home when I wanted to.

At one time, or still on there, these would pop up on YouTube to download and similar.

That's interesting Monte about borrowing your Church's 16mm Projector. That's what I use to do from our Church back when I was about 12yrs. They had a B&H 285. I was taking that thing home on a weekly basis. When I finally got enough money together to buy my 1st 16mm Projector I thought for sure it would be a B&H projector but I ended up buying a Kodak Pageant AV-085.

I have a mint condition 185 in my collection that was given to some Big Shot at B&H around 1950. It has a special engraved Silver Plate on the Left side riveted on. When I bought the projector I doubt it had more than s few minutes of run time on it because it was Super Immaculate condition. He probably just took it home after the awards ceremony and put in the Closet...Lucky for Me [beer]
