The provider did an excellent job at getting the product to me in a timely manner, and in excellent condition. I just feel the quality of the video could have been better. The sound was muted and muffled, and the visual quality made it seem as if the original had not been improved from its decades of deterioration.

Most of the movies are not well known. The cover gives the impression that Fred Astaire will be in many of the movies; he's not and to see cast names you must actually start the dvd, there isn't a written movie guide. I'm sure a few of the movies will be good but so far no luck.
