Lot 25 Reels 1951-65 8mm Amateur Home Movie 5" Disneyland Knotts Farm CA Beach

Description

For sale is a fascinating lot of 25 8mm Home Amateur Color Video on a 5" reels from the estate of a local Army Director who was a longtime director of the Missile Defense System.  These date from 1951 to 1965. I tested multiple reels from this estate, and each one I tested was in good working order, and each of these has film that is clean and loose, not sticky or matted. I have included a few pics from one of the reels that had video of Disneyland and Knotts Farm. I have other individual reels listed, and the canister labeling always matched the exact video I saw on the screen. Some of the videos did not have any labeling, and so they are a fun mystery. However, most of the canisters had labeling and below, I have listed many of the places and events noted on the labeling. This will be packaged carefully, and the shipping weight is 15 pounds.  Below is a listing of many of the places and events noted on the owner's labels:
Camping Trip to Yosemite 1960, 1965 Disneyland and Knotts Farm, Camping Trip to Tuolomne Meadows 1961, Visit family in Memphis 1957, San Diego, UCLA Graduation 1959, Visit to Yosemite and Naval Yards and San Diego Zoo, Orange County Park Picnic 1962, Shriner's Convention 1951, Trip to New Orleans 1952, Easter at INglewood 1966, Swimming Lessons, Honeymoon in New Orleans 1955, Atlanta 1956, Ski Trip 1960, Trip To California 1957 (2 Reels), Little Rock 1959, Dallas 1966, Norfolk 1961, Christmas 1961, and 8 mystery reels.
Please ask questions before bidding so that I can insure you know exactly what you are bidding on.  Because I offer multiple pictures and detailed descriptions and prompt reply to questions, I do not offer a standing refund option.  However, if I made a mistake (I am human), or you have a concern, please contact me, and I will do everything reasonably possible to make it right, and my feedback reflects that.  I want both us to come out winners here.  You can expect the items I sell to be smoke-free, unless I specifically state otherwise.
At your request, I will be happy to create a combined shipping invoice on multiple purchases, subject to size/weight restrictions or any other eBay policy limitations. However, eBay's Global Shipping Program may limit combined shipping for international buyers. Also, I am not ever able to provide international returns. As of 2019, many U.S. states have begun to require that eBay sellers charge sales tax on purchases made from residents of their state. If your state requires a sales tax payment, that tax payment will show up on your invoice for final payment. I'm sorry about this added cost, but it is a requirement of your state and not a cent goes to me. Payment for purchases are expected within 3 days of auction end. Have fun.
