Yes, it would appear a Universal negative that Red Fox gave a better treatment to than Universal themselves.
As I say, had this had been a 2 x 400 print that Universal themselves had distributed, it would almost certainly have been on ordinary SP stock or equivalent.
As Red Fox produced this print from the Universal negative, they placed it on their superior chosen stock of the era, LPP.
I haven't come across any other Red Fox produced 2x 400ft abridged mini features. All the ones I have seen and owned were just Universal produced prints, distributed by Derann.
As I say all the Red Fox prints I have seen or owned have all been on decent low fade stock, but they are always full length prints from a short cartoon to a full length feature.
Maybe there are some later Universal produced prints of the 2x 400ft variety that were printed on low fade stock for example, maybe Blues Brothers or Jaws was, but from the ones I had (which was at least 6), none of them were on low fade stock.
