Thimble Theatre dailies discs ready…

Filed under: General — Charlie Summers @ 5:14 pm

Bruce Rosenberger sends in the following; those interested should contact Bruce directly (I didn’t even know what “Thimble Theatre” was until a Google search…):

Finally! The disks are ready! Announcing:

Thimble Theatre dailies - Dec 19 1919 - Jan 1, 1921

Scanned from the files of the SFACA, the first year of this hard to find strip. Scanned at 266 ppi and saved as .tif files. The files have been cleaned of “noise” but if I wasn’t sure, I left it.

The SFACA collection was missing 7 of the dailies from this period. Thanks to “Holmes,” 5 of those are included, retrieved from microfilm.

The set of 2 disks is available for $15 postpaid in the US and Canada. One of our European members and I had worked out a distribution plan for that continent that would keep the price the same. If you don’t live in the US or Canada, contact me and we’ll figure something out to hopefully save huge postal charges. Payment can be made via check, moneyorder, or Paypal. Contact me for details.

All profit from these sets will go to purchase future sets. This is a not for profit venture to make these rare strips available to all. I suspect that a limited run book will also be published in the future.
