Hi Jorg
You can find several offers at eBay at the moment.
At eBay.de You can find single Super-8-cutdown editions regularly.
The distributor was the german ufa-company.
Most of the cutdowns are faded, but the boxes are brilliant.
Regards
Oliver

Jorg ...

If you are lucky enough to find them, some of the "Department S" episodes were actually released as Super 8 optical sound prints. I am assuming that they were meant for the airlines. I had one, though i can't remember the title of that specific episode, but i remember that it is incredibly sharp and that the color was spot on, so these were printed really well, complete from beginning to end

Lots of ITC series were released on super 8 by Techno Films. The ones I have were quite good. Osi I have a couple optical sound too. Wonder if they were for British Airways.

Yes, David, most definitely British Airways prints! How has the colour held up on you're prints?
