Film CORES wanted, 35mm width – does anyone have an accumulation you’d box-up and sell me?
Either diameter will do and any color, though they should of course have the keyslot. Films came from labs on these.

Color drawings of the interiors of historic theatres for sale
Hi,
I’m new to your site, but I have always been interested in old theatres, partly due to the fact I am a theatre organist. In spare time, I draw the interior of old movie theatres/palaces, and I now offer these for sale.
They are in color, 8" by 11" and are of places like the Brooklyn Fox, Loew’s Kings, New York City Roxy, etc. They are ready for framing, and are available at a resonable price. They have been featured in the American Theatre Organ Magazine September 2008. I also except commissions.
I can be reached at .edu or 1-201-321-5319. Contact me for more info and a list of available theatres and those to come.

Last True Neighborhood Theater in Los Angeles!
LOS ANGELES, CA — The Majestic Crest Theatre is for sale and is currently on the market.
The last true neighborhood theater in Los Angles! The Majestic Crest Theatre is featured in the opening montage of “The Tonight Show” with Conan O Brien! The Majestic Crest Theater has a flashing marquee that can cause seizures at night, the interior of this Westwood theatre makes you feel like you slipped on a banana peel and ended up smack dab in Golden Age Hollywood. With an enormous screen and great sound (that’s right – one screen), Majestic Crest Theatre hosts new release independent films with vim and vigor. When you’re sitting in your comfortable seats, don’t forget to look up and watch the stars, just don’t let them distract you. One of the countries longest running and last single screen movie theatres. Westwood' s Crest Theatre was originally built as a live theatre in 1939 by Frances Seymour Fonda, wife of Henry Fonda and mother of Peter and Jane Fonda. This unique venue is known for its landmark, hand painted murals depicting establishments from Westwood and Hollywood during the 1940s. The theater is currently operated by the existing owner, who would consider leasing back and continuing to operate the theater after a sale.
