Where Is A Copy?
I would like to purchase a copy of the 25th annual academy awards (1953). Does anyone know where it can be purchased and how much? Thanks!

shareI don't think any copies are available for sale. The Academy is VERY protective of their ceremonies. I found my copy (and bid a fortune for it!) on ebay-- of all places!! This was several years ago when you could still trade the shows there. They have since stopped the practice. I've written a review of the show above. Good luck in your search.
shareI also have a copy of the 25th annual academy awards. As mentioned, it puts todays shows wanting. All the presenters were former winners. A favorite of mine, Gloria Grahame, won supporting actress award. I wish the speeches today were as short as the one she gave, just a thank you. Then they celebrated with having former winners shown with their oscars. I loved that on the 70th and 75th, but who knows why they didn't do it on the 80th.
Also, have a copy of the 27th annual academy awards. That year, they had the awards presented by all the acting nominees. Speeches were short and they didn't have to bring a list to read of whom to thank.
Wish I could find copies of the 26th, 28th etc.
