I'm selling my Derann 5 x 600ft copy of Those Magnificent Men In Their Flying Machines (1965) in Cinemascope and stereo magnetic audio. It comes with original box, a little tatty (but exactly as I received it), and original spools as issued.
I bought this print earlier this year, and have viewed it in its entirety just once. All reels come with original long countdowns, and I have added white acetate leader to each reel with CIR splices for further protection. Additionally, the previous owner I assume had mounted the film onto long-play spools, so there are good CIR splices at tops and tails. There is an intermittent line on the far right of the screen at the start of Reel 3 for about two minutes. All reels are tight hand-wound onto spools and cleaned with FilmGuard.
This is the finest Super 8 print of any film I've seen. The detail of the images is phenomenal (some say closer to 16mm), and so is the audio. There are some screen shots here, but I can post more if you would like to see them. I am selling somewhat reluctantly because I'm short of space, but I'd rather it went to a collector who is looking for this title.
The price is £275 (GBP) plus postage domestic or international (which I can calculate on your preference). Each spool will be individually and carefully packed, and I will flat pack the box too. Just as with eBay, I will accept returns without question if you're not happy.
Please PM me if you're interested, or if you have questions.
