Absolutely.  Ane I've been reliving my youth recently.  So far
there have been two sets of 8 films each of A&C, with the 3rd due
out in August. About $24 a set.  The 16MM cut down editions that
ran about 15 minutes as I recall were $8 - in the late '40s
dolllars.   And minimum wage was under $1.00 then.
