Looking for dvd: "4 First films on absinthe (1899-1913)"

I am doing research on the subject of drugs and substance abuse in cinema and desperately trying to find the DVD below, does anyone here have it? It was released in NTSC and PAL versions.

These are the folk that actually released it:
http://www.oxygenee.com/iframe-5/iframe-6/ (search for “DVD” and NTSC and PAL versions come up).
It’s out of stock but you could drop ‘em a line, begging for a DVD-R or something…

Here’s its US Amazon listing:

And an interesting looking documentary on the stuff:

Good luck!
