Note to Ebay These films are in the Public Domain
It’s been estimated that over 90% of all silent films made no longer exist. Of the ones that do still exist there are many that are preserved in only in private collections or various archives such as the Library of Congress, Museum of Modern Art, UCLA , etc. Most of these are not accessible to the general public. I have just had some more films from my private collection transferred from film and I am releasing them on DVD-R. While all are in the “Public Domain” chances are you have never seen most of them. This set has a two commedies and two early attempts to add color to film by hand tinting the frames.
Collection #7 has 4 films

The Locket or When She Was Twenty (1913) This one Stars John Bunny, Flora Finch, and Leah Baird. Baird accidently puts her locket into Bunny’s pocket where Flora finds it and leaves him while he’s napping. When Bunny awakes and finds Flora’s note he hurries to her parents’ home. On the way Baird spots Bunny and follows him with a cop to have him arrested.
The Wrong Mr. Fox (1917) Victor Moore plays Jimmy Fox an out of work actor who is about to kill himself when he gets a job offer. He takes the wrong train and ends up in a town expecting the arrival of a Reverend Fox.
