Run from Phoenix by Jack and Jason Hardy, Grapevine sold rare silent and early sound films from the VHS era onward, later on DVD and, from about 2017, a small line of Blu-rays. Transfers varied in quality and usually came with new organ, synth or compiled scores. Retail sales ended on 6 September 2023 when Jack Hardy retired.
