DISCONTINUED ITEMS AND PRODUCT CHANGES

Every year in June, our company conducts an annual inventory during which we assess which film products are in demand and those that are losing popularity.  Unfortunately, due to the harsh economic environment affecting businesses in the U.S. nationwide we are forced to make changes to our catalog to meet these ever changing demands to the marketplace. 

Below you will find the products that we have decided to discontinue (along with the dates they become effective).  In some cases, we will replace these discontinued products with another of equal and higher quality.

As per our company tradition and commitment to the film industry, if for any reason you cannot find the exact product you need, please contact us directly and we will do our best to accommodate your request and place a 'Special Order' for you if the item can still be obtained.
