    I've heard there was a film of Harry Greb in circulation in the 1940s and '50s, perhaps even the early 60s.

    So have we all to send our own personal message to make it look like everyone in the whole world wants to see this found?

    I wouldn't be surprised if they already know of its lack of existence.
