Could be an invite only beta. Rob ... From: probe_control@yahoogroups.com [mailto:probe_control@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of John Sent: Tuesday, February 19,...
That bit on the scanner that looks like rust (mostly where the support rods meet with the lens housing) could very well be some rust. If those rods were...
I remember Paul Winchell! Very talented. I also remember his kid's show (Jerry Mahoney, Knucklehead, Vicki the turtle, Paul Winchell playing Jerry's dad,...
Ditto to all, John. Ditto. (WNEW, Channel 5, while living in the South Bronx, NY.) May those involved with Metromedia at the time burn in hell for that. Dino. ...
Don't feel bad. I saw that "Start Free Trial" button and got the heebie-jeebies. Free trial means sign up, get it for free, and when the trial is over JUST TRY...
Hello John I had the same message from Jim’s link as well. I can understand it not being given a region 2 release, we get these all the time, but a region 1...
One of the most charming segments of Love American Style was one with him and Sherry Lewis. They were ventriloquists in the waiting room hoping to see a...
There are a couple of clips from that show here: http://paulwinchell.net/media.html First time I have ever seen it in color. ... [Non-text portions of this...
Oh I feel the same way. Also, I have slow, cheap DSL, so streaming is out of the question. And of course I bought the DVD the first day it was offered. I...
Yes, but what was the content of solder back in late 1971 when they were in preproduction for the pilot? Also, there was a different level of detail given to...

Good day ALL, I just uploaded a pic of the other Scanner more like the Ebay one. It's in Photo Albums > Prop Screen Grabs. Sorry it's not as clear as I'd like...
Geoff, You're correct in that these days solder is made lead-free (safety for the environment as well as the tech doing the work) and with metals/alloys other...
Hello Dino I dunno about the USA, but I can’t recall anything else being used in solder in the UK. Lead isn’t like to rust neither. Just because it was...
It's always a distinct pleasure seeing your work, Mike! Your latest scanner is nothing short of breathtaking, of course. If you get around to taking better...
Geoff, It pains me to say this, but the US has always lagged behind the UK in just about everything: rifled barrels in guns (small arms as well as artillery...
Hello Dino Re: lagging behind. Looking at your list, do you think it can be divided between wanting to keep things cheap or afraid of change being significant...
Geoff, The first few things on my list of "lags" is certainly a reluctance to change, and in some cases stupidity; in WWII Florida refused to abide by the...
Hello Dino I wasn’t going to raise the stupidity aspect. Your Florida example sounds like seeing self-interest over anything else. Re: Hero Scanner. Jim...
I need to get the Archive release on the laptop and do some freeze frames to see how often the hero was used. From looking at the film clips all these years,...
Re: Hero Scanner. Jim Alexander will probably confirm this but the hero scanner was only used for close-ups, all the rest were stunt doubles and these were...
Here is an isolated image of the 400 DPI scan of the clip from Operation Iceman: http://probecontrol.artshost.com/Burn-Pel.jpg Pelham's is fuzzy, but I think...
Geoff, In the Florida example, it could be considered as self-interest, but when it was costing thousands of lives needlessly for that self-interest, it's...
Hello John How are you going to define hero scanner usage?? It might we worth including perimeters for one scanners were destroyed to keep track of all the...

Hello All, Jim, I am also aware of the different Phasers from STTOS and that it did indeed go through a few changes from the beginning. I believe I posted pics...
I enjoyed reading your ruminations on the STAR TREK Phaser props, and SEARCH scanner(s), Mike--and I agree. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Jim Alexander ......
