These shorts are available on DVD as well.
Yea, but I'm a cheapskate. Except when it comes to buying stuff like this on celluloid with sprocket holes, which is what I save my money for.
I remember twenty years ago it was hard for me getting some Laurel and Hardy talkies. How times have changed.
Yes, in region 1 DVDs, the L&H Roach talkies weren't available until 2011. But they were available on VHS starting in the early 80s, in various configs. I taped all the L&H that AMC cable showed in the 90s, even though I had (and still have) the L&H Shows I taped in the 80s, and the Nostalgia Merchant VHS dubs I have. I also taped most of the L&H Roach features shown on broadcast TV in the years before the L&H Show restorations. And I now have them all on 16mm, 8mm, or Super 8 film, which I started collecting in the 70s. Whew!
