Check back soon! A Study of Capitalism, Despots, and Communism, Volume 2 "A study of Capitalism" An original production published by The Classic Archives! This DVD is Volume 2 of our set on Communism and Capitalism. Please view our other items to see our other volumes on the subject. Originally made in the 40's and 50's during the Cold War, these films were designed to educate American's on the value of Capitalism and what it means to the American way of life. Faced with a showdown with the largest Communist nation in the world, the United States Government wanted to educate our citizens on what we were fighting and who we were up against. Today, while the threat of an outside Communist takeover is not real, the threat itself is very much real. Only in modern times, the threat comes from within. A growing segment of our population, as well as our elected officials, seem to enjoy aggravating class warfare and initiating a "soak the rich" atmosphere. Some politicians actually believe the way to create jobs for our people is to tax and regulate our businesses, to make it harder for them to do business. This bitterness and desire to see America become a welfare state, of "We Want This!" and where competition is thwarted, is clearly warned against in this DVD. Our educators, themselves paid by the state, are actively trying to sabotage Capitalism and indoctrinate our young. These leads us to elect politicians who want to spread the wealth, so instead of having a rich class, a middle class, and a poor class, we all become poor and supposedly happy. These films are meant to educate, enlighten, and inform against the evils of communism and socialism, and what it really means to be a capitalistic nation. If there is one DVD to show to your children, to make them realize that America is the only place in the world where someone who works hard can move out of being poor and into being rich, this is it. In our opinion, here at The Classic Archives, this DVD should be required viewing for every American, and doubly so for every politician. When you look at some of these films, and watch the sections on communism and socialism, it is downright frightening to how much of that reminds us of some aspects of modern day life, and most especially, our elected officials. If you are interested in this set, please be sure to check out our Volumes 1 and 3. This DVD runs about 2 and a half hours and has a fully interactive menu. A list of films is as follows: Capitalism (1948) A group of teenagers on a high-school radio program discuss just what capitalism is, seizing onto the example of the butcher who supplies the weenies for their picnic. With Mickey Hugh (Ray Bennett); Franklyn Ferguson (John Howell). Educational Collaborator: James Harvey Dodd, Ph.D., Head, Department of Economics and Business Administration, Mary Washington College, University of Virginia. Sound, B&W, 9:23 Democracy (1945) Presents nature of meaning of democracy; develops keen appreciation for meaning of democracy by analyzing 4 major concepts on which exists substantial body of general agreement. Points out that true democracy is characterized by at least 2 signs. Sound, B&W, 10:18 Freedom to Learn (1954) When, due to the well-meaning fears of parents, a high school social studies teacher is charged with teaching communism, she explains why she teaches about communism and why she believes it important that students know the facts about subjects they discuss in current event. Sound, B&W, 26:29 In Our Hands, Part 1 How We Got What We Have (1950) How economic progress comes from the accumulation of privately owned tools of production; demonstrates the need for tools by showing a young couple with their infant child in a wilderness with nothing but natural resources and their hands. Sound, B&W, 21:01 In Our Hands, Part 2 What We Have (1950) Strengths of the American free enterprise system and how it meets the needs of its citizens. Sound, B&W, 14:53 In Our Hands, Part 3 How To Lose What We Have (1950) Drama of an authoritarian (probably Communist-type) coup in the U.S., assisted by apathy, an indifference to federal intervention in community affairs, and lack of economic incentive. Sound, B&W, 11:53 In Our Hands, Part 4 How to Keep What We Have (1950) How a limited government and private control over labor, resources and tools can stave off a Communist takeover of the U.S. Sound, B&W, 11:12 A Look at Capitalism (1955) Defines capitalism and shows that the keystone in American capitalism is the principle of ownership of the means of production and distribution. Sound, B&W, 13:07 The Responsibilities of American Citizenship (1955) Shows that citizens should understand the American way of life, communism and socialism and their propaganda techniques, public education and government. Sound, B&W, 11:22 Tragedy or Hope (1972) The film is structured as a narrative in which John Smith's ancestors educate him about "what's right with America" in hopes of leading him away from "the road to anarchy and self-destruction." There are many bits of archival footage in this film. It begins with a brief discussion of those "radical speakers who are subsidized by communists". We move from these scenes of "mass hysteria" to extended montages which depict all the wonders of an American capitalist society. Sound, Color, 24:42 DVD Menu Sampler: DVD format and quality All of our DVD's sold are formatted NTSC, without region coding. This means that they will play on any NTSC DVD Player in the world. The standard in USA is NTSC. For those in Europe, your DVD player may be a PAL format, which will not work. For those overseas customers, please verify that your DVD player can play NTSC disks. Please note, that most of the films on our disks were made 40 years ago or more. Some perhaps as old as 80 or 90 years! As you can imagine, the movie making equipment of the time was a lot more primitive than the high tech equipment that they use today. Also, many of these films were stored improperly for decades before being digitally coded. As a result of this, these films are not what one would consider to be "DVD quality" today. Many, if not most, are black and white. The sound and picture quality is not perfect. There are those occasional "snap, crackle, and pops" across many of these films. We feel that these imperfections add to a film's charm, and provide for a more authentic viewing experience. With that in mind, this collection may not be for those wishing to find digitally remastered and professional recolored duplications of the original work in perfect DVD quality. Please keep that in mind prior to purchase, since we have fully disclosed that to you. Catalog Number This item is our catalog #J72. If you purchase another item with this same catalog number, you will get two identical items. Given this, we cannot offer refunds for customers who accidentally purchased two identical disks without reading this auction fully. Questions and Answers: Why should I buy from you? There are lots of places to buy similar stuff on ebay. What makes you so special? What separates us from the rest is that we want you to be happy. If you're happy, you'll buy from us again and tell your friends. Getting one sale from you is great, but we want the next sale from you and the next one after that. It isn't worth a few bucks to us to have one unhappy customer. If you are unhappy, tell us and let us try to fix the problem. How many sellers will say that? Yeah, so, there are lots of other sellers on ebay. Are you saying the rest of them will rip me off? No, of course not. But, beware of what people sell on ebay. Many sellers on here will charge you an exhorbitant amount for shipping. Many will "claim" to provide discount shipping only when you contact them, they'll tell you they'll take a quarter off the shipping price for each additional item. We never do that. Our combined shipping policy is clearly spelled out for those to see. No tricky or cheap discounts. Just Buy 3, Get One Free. Simple as that. Also, when comparing our films to those of others, take note of not only the price of the item, but also the content. You'll see that we not only offer more films per package then our competition, and not only at the cheapest shipping, but also at the cheapest price too. I live in country ABC, will your DVD work in my DVD player? Short answer, probably. Long answer, it depends. There are two formats of DVD in the world. NTSC and PAL. NTSC is the standard for the US and I believe Japan, along with some other countries too. PAL is popular in Europe. If you have an NTSC DVD player (all USA customers), this disk will work for you. If you have a PAL player, this won't. Also, many commercial DVD's out there have region coding. Without getting in a long discussion on it, none of our DVD's have any region coding, so that won't be an issue. All you need to know is whether or not your DVD player is an NTSC format. What if my disk arrives damaged? We offer a no muss, no fuss guarantee that all damaged disks are replaced free of charge. Testimonial emails from customers: "Just got it,and I love it.

These films are invaluable, and they have been keeping my students engaged. Thank you so much." Andrea P., Memphis, TN. "My father served in WWII and I bought these films from him. Many of them brought a tear to his eye. We will treasure this collection." Jeff H., Trenton, NJ. "...Very moving and hard to watch. I couldn't watch the whole thing. Just brought tears to my eyes." Lucy N., Atlanta, GA. "Those old fair films are absolutely amazing. It really is like watching another world like you said. I was glued to them for hours." Jake P., San Diego, CA. "My uncle was a firefigher for 36 years and I bought this collection for him. He just loves it. Thank you." Sarah P., Boston, MA. "I'm a high school physics teacher and I bought your A-bomb films for my students. Unbelievable footage.

In an effort to keep our costs down, that are passed along as low prices to you, all of our disks are packaged and shipped in economic sleeves and mailers. All of our disks are labeled with a clean label and some graphics. The disks are made this way for speed and cost, which translates into lower cost for you. We focus our efforts on the quality of the material on the disk.

PLEASE READ ABOUT SHIPPING TIMES: The estimated delivery dates shown above are ebay's estimates, not ours. Sometimes ebay's dates are completely unrealistic. Every effort is made to get your item out the next day, but once it leaves us, we ask that you please understand that we do not guarantee delivery by any date, since the USPS does not give us a guarantee either. Below is our estimates on what to expect: USA CUSTOMERS: Most times, your package will arrive in about 1 week after we ship them depending on where you are at. However, lately the Post Office it seems has not been very cooperative with us and we've had a couple of customers wait a few days longer than that. If the item does not arrive, please email us directly and let us know, and we will make it right. NON-USA CUSTOMERS: Same deal above, except your packages typically have been taking about 2 weeks or so after we ship them. We've noticed that maybe 20% of overseas customers have been waiting as long as 4+ weeks for these shipments. The only explanation we can come up with is that it must be stuck in some container in some dock waiting on customs clearance. It happens, and for those 20% of customers, we apologize, but there is very little we can do about that. Your disk will arrive or we will replace it. Multiple items purchased by the same customer may or may not be shipped in the same package, at our discretion. We do not offer any additional discounts on multiple items other than the ones noted above. Feedback Policy: Please offer us a chance to fix any problems before leaving us negative feedback for any reason by emailing us first with your problem. The only thing we ask from our customers is that if they have a problem, that they give us a chance to fix the problem for them before they leave bad feedback. If negative feedback is left without any prior communication, we will assume you are no longer interested in communicating and working things out. If you run into issues and wish to speak with us, we ask that you please refrain from opening a request on ebay and email us directly by asking a question first, and give us a chance to answer you before you open a request! If you have any questions prior to bidding, please use contact the seller above and let us know. Thank you!!!!!! Copyright notice and disclaimer: We ARE THE AUTHOR OF THIS DISK.
