Yeah, that's what I meant by it being from 1931. A lot of film that old just gets brittle and begins flaking away or gets separated. After all, Gone With the Wind was released in 1939, so sound and even colored recording (Technicolor) were around in 1931. But that is some cool information!!

Well, maybe we could try it again. At the very least we can start one here in the Tennessee forum.....
