The most I payed for a Discovision disc is $15 for a pristine copy of Ma and Pa Kettle. Also it is not available to me in Australia. That is the reason my collection is so stunted. Not many Discovision discs offering overseas postage. Blane must have bid on that. I don't if even has that LaserDisc. Apparently that guy also sold Le Corbusier and Archiology / the big dig as well!

While this disc was always shown to have been released in both MCA's catalogs & stock reports, only about 34 copies were shipped to Atlanta for the launch, then it disappeared, not to be seen again. Most collectors did not believe the disc was actually pressed until this auction showed up. The disc is so rare it is worth what the seller got for it. My partner was the DiscoVision reviewer for DiscDeals magazine where Blaine got the majority of his info for his DiscoVision website. All the non-feature films were pressed at the Torrance labs and don't suffer the defects of the Carson pressings.
Unlike "The Amish" and "The Bolero" none of these other titles, except for Julia Child, Jaques Cousteau and some of the Jane Goodall titles, have been released on DVD, making them "lost" programs and worth major $$$.

This person also bought something from Blaine back in 2002. I'd say another avid collector. I'd like to see his collection.

I live in hope someone will eventually upload these programs on to Youtube or DVD so that the price may go down.

The price is astronomical! Yeah looks like someone got too much money to blow. That is way overpriced and it only runs for 18mins?

Well I hope they upload it on youtube I tried looking for it, its not there? I like stuff like Cosmos with Carl Sagan This player looks well treated given its age and after looking at what, Wolverine http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Pioneer-Laser ... 41607207c2 did to his, Pioneer laserdisc player that is later model in the world of 12” film discs, this DiscoVision player and discs as well all up for bidding. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SYLVANIA-VP27 ... 2c61828b7d
