To offset the costs of buying all of these films, I'm selling copies of this DVD at my online store. I'll be showing off some of these commercials all this month on the blog (I'm lazy that way, it's easier than scanning). Sorry for the sales post, I promise to keep those down in the future.



And now, I'm going to give away two sets of the DVD. It's pretty simple, answer this trivia question and email it to me, I'll draw the names on Tuesday.

The Mattel 12" Cylon and Colonial Warrior were retooled versions of a popular 1960s Space toy by Mattel, what was it's name?

    What kind of telecine machine are you using to transfer the film to video? Just curious.

    I'll have to ask, all I know is we don't use the standard "record the projector" method.
