An antique (wish l had a joke here) is an object over 25 years old
by US standards. Apparently, l own a lot of them.

Like a bottle of "New" Cocoa-Cola, and a vhs tape of Back To the Future! Laurel and Hardy would be considered quite archaic by many young people here in the U.S.- that is, if they even knew who L&H were.
Side note: If L&H films suddenly become available on dvd here in Region 1, most people will ignore the dvds, because they won't even know who these guys are! It would be wonderful if tv stations would (or could, if there's a problem with obtaining the broadcast rights) start showing Laurel and Hardy films on a regular basis. Then the general public would have some idea who Stan and Ollie were, and be more inclined to buy a dvd of their films.
Ollie: "You have to get up pretty early in the morning to fool a Hardy."
Stan: "What time?"
Stan: "What time?"

Does this sound odd, or is it me?
"ALL FILMS ARE IN EXCELLENT SUPERB CONDITION UNLESS NOTED OTHERWISE,. I ONLY LOOKED AT THE FILMS UP TO A LIGHT TO CONFIRM WHAT IS ON THE REEL IS WHAT IT IS SUPPOSE TO BE."
"I DO NOT OWN A PROJECTOR NOR DO I KNOW HOW TO RUN ONE....""
Well, I know the answer to the second question........
