I believe the name of Mr Harris' label is Film Preserve. Artcraft Pictures was a distribution company started by Mary Pickford in 1916

I may check this out. I just picked up that director's adaptation of Peter Pan on Blu-ray for $10 via Kino's fall sale, which came highly recommended by Jonathan Rosenbaum. (Haven't got Peter Pan yet, still shipping.)

Ronald Colman really looks exactly the same as he did decades later

You’d think they’d renumber this series if a big selling point is that it’s pressed and the first installment from years ago was not

Is Beau Geste available anywhere for a reasonable price yet? Amazon has it at list for $34.95, which is not beau at all

Alas, currently $27.50, and no coupon. Still not bad.
