Derann released quite a few great quality Bug's Bunny Cartoons, but Techo Films copies, depending on the film stock, have held up quite well.
Be cautious of that film stock however, as Techno apparantly used whatever was available at the time, sometimes low fade stock, (like agfa) others printed on the terrible fade eastman stock.
Perhaps Doug might give us a good list of the Techno film Warner Brother releases?

I will ask my friend Gian if he happens to have a catalog for Techno from way back when.
Andrew, I would definitely check with Derann Films. Many of thier warners releases are now out of print, but if you run into one, you will not be disappointed. Some of thier super 8 warners cartoons are right up there with GOOD 16Mm prints. "Gruesome Twosome", for instance, (A cherished favorite of mine) is a truly amazing print, as is another Bob Clampett classic, "Coal Black an De Sebben Dwarves" Those prints really amaze, but they will cost you.
Techno could rise to the challenge here and there, and the nice thing about Techno is that they released many a print from the 1949 all the way up through the end, passing even 1964 (the last year of releases by the original Warners studio) and on into the progressively worse releases of the late 60's.
