    Description

    Here is a 2000 ft 16mm home movie dating from Sept. 1969 based on the Kodak date seen along the edge of the film.
    This film came from a wealthy Lancaster, Ohio family. The former owner's name can be seen on the canister "William J. Gesling". A Google search will turn up more information on him. If you have a newspapers.com account you will see many articles about him as
    he used to own one of the largest ranches in Costa Rica and had many political connections.
    This is the equivalent of having 5-400 ft home movie reels.
    Written on the canister is "Ranch pictures - Complete".
    I have not projected this film or looked at any of it as it would take a long time to unwind and rewind and I don't have time for that. The film appears to be in excellent condition so I don't expect any issues at all. There is no vinegar smell.
    Thanks for looking and please check out the other home movies & films I am selling this week.
