I ve been buying and selling (mostly buying!) on eBay for many years. I have had great experiences, and want to treat everyone I deal with fairly - as I expect them to treat me.

Charming Treasure
I have always been a sucker for animation. I grew up in the 60's, and there was an abundance of Hannah-Barbera short-cut animation. Don't get me wrong, I loved Yogi, Quickdraw, et al., but even to my preschool eyes I knew the difference from this and _real_ animation.
I loved the animation from the 30's and 40's, and Popeye (the OLD ones), were a special treat. Here you have them as you have likely never seen them before. Title sequences that were butchered by the time I ever saw them on TV are restored, and you can feel a little of what moviegoers 70-75 years ago experienced.
It was a different world, and different sensibilities. It is easy to romanticize the time, and I don't want to be one of those who blindly consider those the "good ole' days" (hey, I wasn't even around!). But there is no denying that there was a certain innocence and a sense of greater things to come that probably helped a lot of folks through those especially trying economic times, with diversions and escapes such as a Popeye cartoon and Cagney's latest taking a bit of the edge off of what for many was not such a comfortable reality.
Politically incorrect? Sure, by the standards of today, but "Hurray!" This is a reflection of the times, and maybe a lot more healthy way to look at ourselves than the eggshell sensibilities that all seem to wear on their sleeves now. As someone of middle eastern descent, I laugh at and enjoy broad stroke depictions of "Ali Baba Arabs" in their cultural and times context just as I do the treatment given others.
This is art. This is a time capsule. This is the REAL Popeye.

Rio, Romance and... Bossa Nova. Light-hearted and charming.
This is one of those movies I go back to time and again. Not because it is some gem overlooked by the Academy, but because it is just a cute, sweet, funny feel-good picture with a solid cast against the breathtaking backdrop of Rio de Janeiro. Add in some terrific bossa nova, and I defy you to not have a good time, if you're willing!
