Just wanted to thank Adrian and Ian for helping me out on acquiring this title. It really is a great print. Super sharp, great colors and pretty nice sound for an optical track.
Merci! Danka! Gracias! Arigato!

Good to hear you liked the LSOH you received from Ian. Just curious to know whether the colour, despite being good, has the somewhat brownish look that both of my prints have, or have you been lucky enough to find one with perfect colour?

Hi Adrian, I think they all have this slightly warm look. Mine is on a LPP stock and still looks warm but at the same time has a really nice feel about it. Nice greens and blues which you wouldnt get it it was the dreaded fade.

Hello! Yes, it is a tad bit on the warm side but the blues and greens are dead on! [Smile]

I love it!

Hello Guys...

I too have a print of "Little Shop Of Horrors" and mine too is also on LPP stock with a tad warm look. The Greens and Blues look wonderful. When I was saw a 16mm prints a bit ago, it looked about the same. The negative was probably made that way.

A friend of mine that works on masters for video transfers, said that many times they bump up the color on a transfer. He recalls Little Shop looking a tad warm on 35mm.

Just thought I would share..... Happy collecting.. Ken
