Keep an eye out for more!This product contains digital transfers of vintage 8mm film that is between 50 and 70 years old. While every effort was made to transfer, edit, and render the films in the highest quality format possible, it is important to remember the age and medium of the source material. When choosing to purchase this product, do so because you are interested in the historical value of the material contained, rather than looking for a high definition video viewing experience. The footage on this DVD was digitally transferred from an 8mm film. The films do contain a small watermark in the lower right hand corner of each film to help preserve the copyright. The logo is small and not noticeable. If you see the logo in the sample pictures, the logo on the actual film is only the "locomotive" symbol as seen in the samples...not the full "Casshews" logo.
