Gentlemen,

I have been searching for a way to obtain a copy of the 1954 movie by Robert C. Ruark entitled "Africa Adventure"

The film follows Harry Selby and John Sutton as they hunt cape buffalo, leopard, rhino and a bull elephant.

Africa Adventure was distributed in the U.S. by RKO Pathe, the newsreel division of RKO Radio Pictures. ---- 16 mm , 64 mins. filmed in 1954.

In 2002 a DVD was produced from the original 16 mm film and donated to "The Robert Ruark Foundation" (Chapel Hill, NC) I have tried in vain to find a way to obtain a copy of this DVD.

Here is a short MOVIE trailer for the film !!!! GREAT FOOTAGE !!!!

ANY HELP IN THIS AREA WOULD BE MOST APPRECIATED !!!

Best Regards,
Gil Jackson

It was on TCM one night at 1AM. I taped it and have since lost the tape. Cool old movie.

I don't want to start a rush but what would it take to get a copy. I think i see "a make one and send one thing" happening again amongst the AR crew.

There was a huge thread just like this in January. Someone finally posted this link:

http://www.videoscreams.com/Classic%20Horror%20sci%20fi...nd%20more%202007.htm

I think the CD number is Q347. I bought a copy and received it in a couple of weeks.Not HD quality, but certainly a serviceable copy for a few bucks. If you want to see the previous thread, do a search on "Ruark Africa Adventure".

i would love to see it. the best thing to do is to put it on an online server so it is a click away. if someone gets me a copy i will put it online and post the link.
