Hello there: So sorry you didn't put my name on the 8mm. movie of Cinecon 75. After Madge Bellamy and Jane Withers comes moi......Sybil Jason. Also my best buddy attended this banquet...where is she???? Eleanor Powell. It was fun seeing it again though. Blessings to you and yours Sybil Jason

Hi, Sybil. I truly apologize for leaving your name off. I thought that was you but I wasn't totally sure, and didn't want to mis-identify anybody. (No names were on my film, so I had to try to remember everybody, from 30+ years earlier.) I wasn't at the banquet, so unless I was able to make a quick film before someone entered, I couldn't photograph people who only attended the banquet. (I remember seeing a quick glimpse of Jackie Coogan and some others inside.)

Thank you so much for posting this wonderful footage.

Mary Brian, Richard Arlen, Dorothy Davenport Reid, Madge Bellamy....Wow! So many wonderful STARS!

So sad there are not many left to attend Cine Con today, it isn't the same.
