I have for sale a Derann scope print of Capricorn One mounted on 4x600ft reels. I'd like $350 plus shipping using Paypal. I can ship worldwide (from Japan).

"Three astronauts are about to launch into space on the first mission to Mars. But when a mechanical failure surfaces, NASA removes them from the Capricorn One capsule. To prevent a public outcry, NASA requires the astronauts film fake mission footage in a studio. However, the plan is compromised when an ambitious journalist discovers the conspiracy.

Condition description:

Reel 1
 -
- The above photo is to illustrate the print quality rather than a flaw. While the print is a scope release, I took the photos without using my scope lens for the sake of clarity.

 -
- About 18mins into the film several frames have this effect on them. It lasts less than a second.

 -
- One green emulsion line to the far right of the image that lasts about a second.
- In addition to the above there are two instances, lasting a second each, in which a white line appears to the side of the frame.

Reel 2
- A single frame is scratched in a similar manner to the white effect above at a scene transition.

 -
- The above doesn't have any flaws but is just to illustrate quality (though I apologize for my poor photography).

 -
- For about two minutes towards the end of the reel, thin white lines appear to the right of the screen (to the right of O.J. Simpson's elbow.

Reel 3
 -
- Another picture to illustrate the reel quality.

 -
 -
- The above two photos illustrate some white speckling present on the left side of the frame that persists through much of the reel (look at the plant pot). I may have become overly sensitive to this as I was watching specifically to catch flaws).

In order to post the rest of the images I need to wait for a reply apparently so I can add them within a new post. Until then, I'd like $350 plus shipping. I can ship worldwide (from Japan).

Thank you Paul and here's the rest of the pictures and description of reel 4.
