I've also seen on some of John's old films with the words "Digitally Remastered", and all that means is they transfered it from an analog source to a digital source and the quality is still the same old scratchy film. Ron!

Ron, Thank you for your insight, this answers a few of my questions.

I'd be interested to find out the reasons behind the lack of availability of Red River Range, The Night Riders, Wyoming Outlaw and Frontier Horizon from the 1938 to 1939 time period. These are the newest group of John Wayne's films that I do not have on VHS or DVD.

Simply put, Lionsgate/Paramount has no desire to dig deep into that wonderful republic library and release the titles there in.
My suggestion is to simply email the heck out of both Paramount and Lionsgate. -

I have all of these on DVD and most are pretty good quality PM me as I do a bit of swapping/trading now and then
Recently I have had four sons, hangmans house and one other ( just forget) from the FORD AT FOX remastered collection and they really are remastered, superb quality viewing. But the cost and the shipping from US on top is way up there.
I have had some things from Ron in the past and as he says often the quality is better that I had so worth taking a look? I know he sells his stuff I prefer, where I can to trade rather than buy.
My list of what I have and what I am looking for is posted on this site if anyone is interested in trading with me please? -

Bardelys the Magnificent is now complete. I also have all the films that are not lost on DVD. All the ones you mentioned in your earlier post. Thanks, Ron!

I am glad I read this piece, as there is someone in America online selling John Wayne movies, and has a few of the early ones on DVD but they are at a high price and especially when the postage is as high to send to the U.K. Now that, thanks to you all, I now know that the films like BARDELEYS THE MAGNIFICENT, MOTHER MACHREE and some other early one's are not the full film and the parts that are missing could be the parts that John Wayne appeared in, so it would be a waste of money. I am not sure of the name of the place, as I have recently had my computer
thoroughly cleaned and lost most of the favourites Ikept, but I am sure I still have somewhere a piece of paper somewhere with the site name on and when I find it I will put it on the message board

To regards my previous posting about someone in America selling early John Wayne films, I managed to find the list and the company's name is Bygone Video, P.O Box 1263, Fulton, KY, 42041. The list of films they have is, Bardely's the Magnificent, Four Sons, Lady for a night, Lady and Gent, Black Watch, Arizona, Browns of Harvard, California Straight ahead, Central Airport, Great K & A Train Robery, I cover the War, Men Without Women, The life of Jimmy Dolan, Noah's Ark, Rough Romance, Salute, The Sea Spoilers. The prices of these films they are charging from between $12 - $29. I hope this is of interest. Chisum2.

Update: Have found the web address for bygone video. www.bygonevideo.com

Clive,
Good to see you again! It's been quite awhile.
Thanks for the information on Bygone Video, as many of us are interested in older movies.
Chester

Thanks Chisum2
-
I have a restored "Bardelys the Magnificent" as well as "Lady and Gent", and many others that your looking for. "Bygone video got most of them from me. My email address is [email protected] Just thought you might be interested. Thanks, Ron!
-
Ron, What method do you use in the restoration process?
Could you post a list of the films you have available?Chester
-
Like Arthur stated, I believe the four lost films are:
Three Girls Lost
Girls Demand Excitment
The Oregon Trail
Adventure's End
Baring a miracle, I don't believe we'll ever be able to see these.
Girls Demand Excitement will play in a New York film festival later this month.
Bring your camcorder <g>. -
RoughRider, could you give a little more detail regarding that film festival . . . like where and when? That would be pretty exciting! It would be too much of a commute from the west coast, but perhaps some of our east coast members might be able to check it out . . . depending on where it is.

How nice that would be and there are a few more that Fox could restore and release.
I have the restored Ford at fox collection which includes Four Sons and they did a great job with that.
