Author Topic: Cat. No. 251 digitize Sean McKinnon Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1712 From: Peabody Massachusetts Registered: Sep 2000 posted 05-24-2015 07:00 PM                        Before it's too late can someone record and upload both catalog no 251 Jiffy and the Listen films? I would assume any copyright would have run out by now. Maybe Sam or someone could ask Ioan Allen about it?  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 05-25-2015 09:50 AM                     The copyright is 50 years and it hasn't been that long I have asked repeadedly for them to sell a dcp version but they have no interest  |  IP: Logged Christos Mitsakis Expert Film Handler Posts: 242 From: Ag.Paraskevi, ATHENS, GREECE Registered: Sep 1999 posted 05-25-2015 01:06 PM                     Dolby "Jiffy" test film, original analog version. terrible picture & sound but you get the idea.

I'm sure the copyright, if any, on that has been long expired.  |  IP: Logged
