This has been one of my personal crown jewel prints for decades. It has been lovingly cared for, stored cool and dry. Some expected 1-2 frame repair splices (and A-B section connector splices from the lab). Some edge repairs, a few fine scratches mostly near very end or start of reels, but what you see for the most part is a pristine screen image. Please see frame shots to see what I mean, it looks and sounds magnificent.
Never plattered, so none of that damage at all. Many of the reels have either head or tails still uncut! Brilliant rich color, razor sharp, fantastic soundtrack, too. Presents beautifully. A collector\'s dream. Hope you win it! If you do, please store it well and keep it preserved! It really is a thing of beauty.
