(Note: We are fortunate that nearly all of Fairbanks' films have been well-preserved and are available on video.  Although the quality of prints may vary through individual distributors, we highly recommend the prints available from Kino Video, and Unknown Video. Titles that are unavailable on video are indicated by an asterisk.)

Also, we recommend an article by museum volunteer Barbara Burkowsky analyzing the Fairbanks films individually. The story can be read here.
