James, your Sasmson & Delilah print is beautiful. I like to have one.
quote: That Marketing print of Raiders looks like it has colors, but strange looking. I wonder if it looked like that when it was released in the early 80's?
No, James, I once planed to re-dub the soundtrack to stereo sound, so I took video shot when it was still in good colors. I still have that video shot and it is so pain having seen how good the colors used to be. And now it look like the above pictures (the actual print is even worst than the above. Above pictures have been "corrected" automatically by my digital camera, so there seems to have blue left, but actually it is not!! )
BTW, I have edited the thread title, so now it is not only talking Ken and U8 but all old prints (released during the 8mm heyday until 1980s) that still hold the color.
It can be from Ken Films, Marketing Films, U8, Columbia, UFA, Piccolo, Techno Films, etc.
Derann/CHC prints do not fall into this category because they were printed in the middle of 1980s or after 1990s.
So anyone who has old prints that still have good colors, please post here as our screen shot database, so we can find how big is our chance to have good dolor prints.

Aaaaah Doug, you finally put this Galactica .....
For me, this galactica is still good. I know it is on Eastman, will get faded eventually. But they are still good now.
Anyway, below is Doug's copy of "China Syndrome". I compiled them in smaller shots, so less grainy. The bigger shots are in Doug's original thread The China Syndrome
China Syndrome Length: 400" Released by: Columbia Pictures Country: USA Stock: Kodak SP Lab: .... Date of Print: 1981
It is still good for 1980s print.
