PINKY AND THE BRAIN by POSTMODERN JUKEBOX

THIS MUST BE HEARD!!!

(SPOILER: That's the real Pinky and The Brain [voices] at the bar!!!)

Dr. Seuss REVELL ZOO Model Kits- c.1958

For more than a decade- there were one or two of these on a dusty shelf- downtown at The Lancaster Book and Office Supply. I looked at them every time I went in. Finally- it was announced that they were going out of business. I rushed down there- only to find that someone had FINALLY BOUGHT THEM! (Not me! Darn!)











THE SILENT MAN Projecting into the Past:

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9ureZgJ6T-KkYsS_fK7Zgg/videos

You probably don't want to get started looking at this guys 8mm, 16mm print transfers on his Youtube channel... Even some 9.5mm prints!

Some transfers are not the best, but when they are good they are GREAT!

Especially some color TERRYTOONS!

Also Leon Erroll, Edgar Kennedy and Charlie Chase comedies.
TOO MUCH JOHNSON (1936)

Try to imagine this. CITIZEN KANE was NOT Orson Welles film debut(!) In 1936 ORSON WELLES made a weird, *silent* film with JOSEPH COTTON, MARY WICKES, ARLENE FRANCIS and JOHN HOUSEMAN. The third remake of a silent film TOO MUCH JOHNSON. 

Imagine JOSEPH COTTON as a HAROLD LLOYD-esque guy bumbling around some fantastic New York locations. (some scenes almost remind one of ERASERHEAD!!!) It was intended to be part of a live and film ON-STAGE presentation. 

Then the film was NEVER FINISHED. Was thought to be LOST FOR THIRTY YEARS. Then found by WELLES in a TRUNK IN HIS HOME in the 1970s. Still never finished. Then In August 1970, a fire broke out at Welles's villa and the only known complete print of Too Much Johnson was destroyed. 

THEN... in 2013 a COPY/WORKPRINT was found in SPAIN. That print was edited into this AMAZING thirty minute presentation. The film is so pristine- it had only been run thru a projector 2 or 3 times before it was preserved in this print!


Be sure to go FULL SCREEN

Prepare to have your mind blown!!!!!

Side-by-side comparison: Zero Hour! (1957) Vs Airplane! (1980)

It may be hard to believe, but in the course of modern film, there are many instances of those taking earlier material and covertly making it into a "new" movie. I knew there was some overlap between AIRPLANE (1979) and ZERO HOUR (1957) but this lays it out in incredible order.

This section looks like if Russ Meyer watched Blazing Saddles and tried to make an episode of The Avengers. VERY esoteric!

"THE NEANDERTHAL MAN" (1953)

Local "Odd Lots"-type store OLLIE'S (in the old Odd Lots location in the Plaza) recently had a "Big Model Boy Out" in their ads, listing several model companies including POLAR LIGHTS. I have not seen any POLAR LIGHTS yet, but they did have this peculiar re-issue for $9.99!

Mid 1960s CBS-TV series.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nKckxONAH4M

This almost brought tears to my eyes. It is so exact. So perfect. You will know it's perfect! 

Amazing to see the size of an orchestra it took to create that theme.

A SWINGIN' SAFARI in STEREO by Bert Kaempfert - 1962

(Theme of original MATCH GAME- 1960's) 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=66TLrby1R1g

 

This is MARIA'S. Formerly The Elk's Lodge. On Main Street- next to The Sherman House(!)- in Lancaster, Ohio.







Recently added outdoor PATIO structure.


Next 3 views are from the seldom seen FOURTH/ATTIC floor inside MARIA'S.




A rare view of Main Street (intersecting Broad/Main Square) from a FOURTH FLOOR window atop MARIA'S. This was once (100 years ago) a historic home!


The parking area between the two buildings on the RIGHT was at one time (1950s until 1960) THE PALACE THEATER.


Here is FLIPPO THE CLOWN'S original ISETTA car. Presiding at an Antique store and Car museum in Carroll, Ohio. (Argued birthplace of Lon Chaney!)
