Just to get an understanding on LPP prints in Super 8 and 16mm.
How much do prints normally go for in either format?

For example a mint print on LPP?

Of course the blockbuster or older movie tends to go for much more for example Star Wars or Goldfinger. But how about the films that are not a blockbuster that get forgotten which where generally made between 1983-1989 but were printed on LPP?

All depends on the title, and general condition of the print Robert.

LPP is nice but, its not rare.

(Thats for 16mm - I know little about 8mm.)

Mike is right -- prices are all over the map depending on the title and condition...

For instance, LPP prints of big titles like "Wizard of Oz", "Gone with the Wind", "Vertigo" or "Adventures of Robin Hood" can sell for up to a couple thousand dollars. While a print of something common and not desireable like "paper tiger" would probably sell for $25-$50...
