Each film in this edition has likely been mastered from a 16mm reduction prints.

The films are accompanied by canned music from a variety of audio sources.

One benefit to this low-budget collection is its inclusion of a couple of Mary Pickford films not available yet in high-quality home video editions, and the addition of a film directed by DeMille’s brother, writer and director William C. de Mille.
