Default Old Movie Serials

Has anybody ever found any of the old 40s & 50s serials of
"Don Winslow of the Navy" or "Don Winslow of the Coast Guard"?
I have seen mag articles of people selling old serials but wonder
if it is real or a scam. I e-mailed a couple but never got a reply.
Makes me a bit cautious on ordering.....

Back in the 40s and 50s, movie houses ran serials along with
the pictures. There were lots of them made about many things
and they were usually about 12 to 15 episodes long. The only
military ones I remember were the "Don Winslow" ones about
the Coast Guard and the Navy. I remember one episode where
they tracked down the U-29. I would sure love to get them on
DVD so I can enjoy them again....
