Written by: Ashley Ward Issue 45 - June 1996
I am an enthusiastic collector and supporter of 70mm films. By this I refer primarily to those titles filmed on 65mm negative - not those blown up from 35mm. I have original 70mm prints of "The Alamo" and "Ice Station Zebra" and hope to acquire more titles. My intent is to build a full-size projection facility, with a curved screen. I am fond of Cinerama as well.

Recently, my collection has embraced road show materials from 70mm titles. I have over 100 different program books, and am looking for more all the time. My hope is that joining your group will allow me to converse with others who love 70mm films as much as I do. I am having a difficult time finding any Ultra Panavision 70 titles around in the original (2,76:1) rectified prints. Do you know any in this country? All prints of "Ben Hur" are spherical now (2,20:1).

Thank you. Ashley Ward, 18 Ludwell Court, Fairfield, Ohio 45014, USA.
