Anyone have a copy of the documentary called Bigfoot Man or Beast? (released around early or mid 70s) or possibly BBC documentary, Fabulous Animals (1972)

I can help you out with Bigfoot Man or Beast - pm me your address.
Fabulous Animals is a no go - even the BBC don't appear to have a copy of this series any more.

Paul, thanks for the reply. Are you aware if there is any of the second reel footage in that at all? I was told it was a possibility. If so I'll be happy to pay you for any shipping cost and for the copy you have. The part I'm most interested in would contain a comparison of the horse tracks or of Gimlins boot print with the subject in the films.

I have no idea - it is a very long time since I watched it.
I understand that Chris Murphy managed to get 70 frames of footage of the second reel from the BBC some years ago, but that is as much as I can tell you.

I read that in an article online. (about Murphy finding those 70 frames) That is what prompted me to call him. (very nice gentleman btw) Basically from my understanding there is no full copy of it out there, unless the BBC has the reel they were sent. (which may only contain the same footage everyone else has seen, which is minus the important comparison part) No one knows how large of a segment they were sent. Its only rumored to be the full second reel. The other huge obstacle is that the BBC denies having it.
So basically we're left with the same old nothing before this quest began lol. I very much appreciate your offer with the disk, but at this point I dont see any point in persuing it because there is no footage "out there" that contains these crucial sections. It was quite a long shot as it is. Murphy did have a lot of information concerning who has what though, in terms of what HAS been given out from the second reel. (which amounts to nothing in terms of comparisons with the horse tracks, or Gimlins boot track)
Thanks for the effort, and the gracious offer.
