The films represent American silent era titles examined and described by a consultant and sent by the National Film Preservation Foundation (NFPF) to EYE Filmmuseum Netherlands (EYE) in Spring 2013. EYE and NFPF identified American silent-era films held by EYE, which are of interest to the American archival community's ongoing program to preserve and mnake available the film heritage of the United States. With the goal of returning these long-unseen matetrials to the public and preserving them for future generations, EYE, the NFPF, and selected American film archives have embarked on a multiyear preservation partnership with the objective of making the films widely available for study and education.
