<p>[QUOTE="Smoke-Town-, post: 92815, member: 1304"]i'm going to try bringing it to the library this week and see if anyone there has advice and/or a projector. the film does seem to be in great condition. doesn't feel brittle. if it is a copy from the 50's which the good condition may suggest...does that mean it wouldn't have much value because it wouldn't be an original film? or more value because it's in good condition and usable? as far as antique appraisers and film experts go, I haven't found any in the area but it seems its worth traveling for... I just wish I could find a ballpark to see how much it may be worth...which would dictate how far i'm willing to travel for an expert. I haven't found any information out there on what similar items have gone for at auctions once authenticated. is there any way to find out?</p><p>I always hear of historical artifacts or antiques or celebrity memorabilia sold on ebay for X amount on antique shows or the news but even that stuff I can't seem to find evidence of.</p><p>sorry I don't know anything about antiques or auctions.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
