You are bidding for a video record of the long discarded 16mm films described below.   When the film  was made it provided a unique insight into its particular subject.  Over the last thirty years a number of ethusiasts realised that such films provided an untapped source of information on past techniques and methods At some time in the past it would have been rescued after being discarded as obsolete by the original owners .

Any money raised from the sale of this video will go towards offsetting the costs of more rescues.

Technical Note. This is a DVD record of a private screening. Transfer quality is to enable the contents to be studied rather than to achieve the  high standard achieved by professional broadcast and commercial video  publishers

However this does mean that you if you are the successful bidder  I will prepare your copy and send it to you BEFORE expecting you to pay.  Assuming you are find it proves to be what you expected from the description all I ask is that you pay preferably by PayPal within SEVEN DAYS of the DVD reaching you.I can make this offer because so far with few exceptions everybody who has purchased a DVD this way has been fascinated by the contents of the video they selected and only too happy to pay.

To my mind that seems a very fair way to work for both parties.
