I've never owned a Grigg's print before and I recently saw a print of Phantom Of The Opera for sale. Does anyone own a print of this from Griggs? What's the quality like?

Don't know about Griggs' OPERA, but I have several of their shorts and in the case of COPS, for instance, there is a scene with keaton that is not in the Blackhawk release; One where he gets a goat-gland to give his horse some pep along the way - GRIGGS' print of "Fatty At Coney Island" contains the original titles and is a prime example of a good print (Blackhawk did not release a version) - GRIGGS did strike some excellent prints, still I'm steadfastly loyal to Blackhawk - Shorty
