Wanted: Theatre seats!
I am looking for about 650 to 700 matching theater seats for a theater restoration. I am going to restore the seats myself but I need to make sure that all the parts are complete. I would like the style to be Art Deco and like to know if they are still installed in a theater.
I will remove all of them myself.
Let me know ASAP!
Thanks ahead of time!

Large theater speakers for sale
We have three Stage Accompany Screen Series Model S27 movie speakers for sale. These are 47-¼ by 47-¼ by 9-¼ inches wide and were in everyday use up until a few months ago. I think that they must be about 20 years old. The 9-¼ inch width means that they are intended to be hung from scenery flys and can be hoisted without interferring with adjacent flys.
The speakers are located in Jackson, Michigan at the Michigan Theater. Weight is about 250 pounds each. We think that they should be worth $500 each, FOB Jackson, Michigan. Call John Guidinger at 517-783-0962 if interested or email at .

Extensive 35mm collection needs new homes
I have to find new homes for hundreds of copies of numerous films from the 70’s, and 80’s. If you would like to see a list of titles send me an email at .
These are mostly horror, and kung fu movies. Lots of Bruce Lee. There’s even a copy of “Godzilla” in there somewhere. Not sure which one. These films need good homes to be viewed, and preserved by. I am asking that you pay shipping, plus a donation of $20+/-. I can provide current photos.
