Then again, Fox doesn't seem to care about whether the spines look good together (i.e. removing the DVD logo after #6, making the pictures on the spine much lighter on the last few releases), so I wouldn't be surprised if they just skipped #14 altogether.
The dealer site doesn't have the box art yet for My Darling Clementine, but they're listing it as "75th Academy Awards Studio Classics Wave 13 DVD".

Oh dear, i just preordered Laura from Dvdsoon... bummer!

Can someone list all releases known in this serie by their spine numbers please? I only have the first 4 ones as sold in boxset at Costco. (inc. Sunrise).

Thank you.

Here you go:

1 - All About Eve
2 - Gentleman's Agreement
3 - How Green Was My Valley
4 - An Affair to Remember
5 - The Day The Earth Stood Still
6 - The Ghost and Mrs. Muir
7 - Love Is A Many-Splendored Thing
8 - The Song of Bernadette
9 - Anastasia
10 - The Inn of the Sixth Happiness
11 - Titanic

The Mark of Zorro (#12) is due out 10/7, followed by The Ox-Bow Incident (hopefully #13!) on 11/4. And apparently, there's not going to be a December release, so the next one will be My Darling Clementine (hopefully #14!) on 1/6/04.

I do have the complete sound track in monaural on CD of "Laura"

If Fox doesn't want to release it, I will make a DVD back up from my Pre-recorded Vhs tape, after all it was made as Industry Standard 1.33:1 analog TV OAR and monaural sound! When watching these I.S. DVD my DVD player locks in a full glass view of a 1.33:1, there is 'no' stretching as it was never cut to fit your screen from Pan and Scan. RCA screen is a 39 inch diaginol 19.5 inches high and 34.125 inches in width. Do the math 1/2 is your height and 7/8 of the same 39 inch diaginol is your actual in screen width, this measuring can be done easy with a calculater.



P.S. I use my RCA HDTV F38310 with the diaginol actually '39' inches, go measure it you'll see that the 38 inch was changed from manufacturer that made tubes for RCA as well as german manufacturer Lowe(Lu va) in the Aconda (38/Diaginol) sets. Actual manufacturer pre-formed the plans for the the 38 to 39 and didn't tell anyone. In viewing the F38310 your actually watching a Direct View from a 16 x 9...39 inch diaginol from the original manufacturerl!

Thanks for the heads-up!

They also mentioned two other upcoming FSC releases: The Diary of Anne Frank on 2/4 (probably 2/3, since 2/4 is a Wednesday!) and Peyton Place on 3/2.

Excellent! All good news. Even better when Laura shows up on a schedule again.
