Need a microfilm from St Pancras, London (British Library)

I need a London resident willing to go to the British Library at St Pancras and scan the microfilm of a 1965 Evening Standard article.

(The article is not available on Newspapers.com; see my previous WP:RX request here [1].)

Relevant details:

• Evening Standard
• Title appears to be: "IT'S THE GHOST OF LILLIE LANGTRY - AS QUEER THINGS HAPPEN IN HER OLD HOME".
• Date of the article is April 2, 1965.
• One exact quote I've seen attributed several times to it is "Langtry's ghost appeared one day".

I need a copy of the article in full (it has been excerpted in at least one book and a few news articles), which is why I need the microfilm. I also need the page number.

Article being improved: Lillie Langtry

My email address is softlavenderwiki@gmail.com

• You want the British Newspaper Archive part of the BL, not all of which is I think online, at St Pancras, or on microfilm. Probably best to ask first. Johnbod (talk) 05:18, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
  • This is definitely available on microfilm at St Pancras. Softlavender (talk) 07:01, 15 December 2023 (UTC)

@Luwanglinux: Why that page range? The matches are on pp. 45 and 46, and carefully searching Google Books ([2], [3]) and elsewhere ([4]) shows that the containing chapter is "Origin, Growth and Fall of the Moirang Principality in South Manipur Valley" by L. Basanti Devi on pp. 45-51. Should I request an interlibrary loan for this chapter, instead?

For Litha Musyimi-Ogana. Note on 1, Google source gives a range of issues: 1070-1162. I found the specific issue and article name here but I have no clue if the page number is the same. Also searching the google source, the issn given in the google book is 0294-6467 (the French version), but worldcat shows other numbers for English. For the 2nd one, I cannot find a version I can access from Mexico. Hathitrust verifies the page number but isn't open access and I can't find it on archive.org either.
