The disc that was sent would not play on my DVD machine. I don't think it was simply damaged. Is it in a foreign format? I returned it without having been able to watch it.

There is a reason that this storyline has survived so long. Because it is so good. Lots of interesting facts about Buster Crabbe. This disk doesn't provide the storys, just the history of the character and his development. A must see for any Flash fan.
