    Description

    Hello. Up for sale is a 16mm b&w film with optical sound titled
    The Invisible Receptionist
    presented by the Bell Telephone Company. This is a
    Wilding Pictures Production
    . The edge code (plus, square) dates this film to around 1955. There is just under 800 feet of film on an 800-foot reel. The film is in excellent condition with near mint images. It begins with a fade-in and ends with a bit of the Tail (see photo). No vinegar odor.
    This is a terrific film depicting the much-needed-at-the-time telephone operator and the “advanced” equipment in use.
    Don’t let this one pass you by. Lots of unsolicited kitsch in this promotional film.
    The winning bidder to pay for Media shipping with Delivery Confirmation and full insurance. Sorry, no overseas bidding on this auction. Thanks and good luck!
