View Full Version : Looking for Tom Graeff featurettes from 1950s

Here's a huge long shot. I'm looking for a series of featurettes made in Southern California by director/producer Tom Graeff. Graeff is the man behind the 1959 sci-fic cult favorite "Teenagers from Outer Space."

There are three featurettes that I'm aware of:

A Toast to Our Brother - made while Tom was at UCLA in 1951, featuring Joe E. Brown and Judith Ames

The Orange Coast College Story - 20 mins, color, made for Orange Coast College in 1954

The Noble Experiment - made in 1955 featuring Miss Orange County, Phyllis Yarwood

This has got to be the most obscure post of all time, I'm sure, but am hoping one of these titles rings a bell with some collector of 1950s ephemeral films out there. These may be in 16mm or 35mm.

Thanks,

Jim Tushinski
