Hello all-

You may have seen my posts trying to find history on my print of Steamboat Willie. It's Super 8, polyester and optical sound. Very clear, but the sound is ~1 second delayed on my projector. It must be synced on some projector with an optical head in a different position? My other opticals read fine. I've asked and searched all over the planet with no comparable find.

Anyways, while I won't outright sell I would entertain a trade for a quality Night of the Living Dead print. Let me know if that's something you may be up for, or if you think you have further knowledge of this print.

Thanks!

Jeff,

What type of filmstock is it on and what's the date code?

With it being an optical film, I wouldnt be suprised if it came from Japan.

I've seen NoLD go for no less than $200, so I think you would be hard pressed to find someone who would want to trade it for your film. I think providing some screenshots on here of your print might get the ball rolling.

Well I don't think it came from Japan since it is on Kodak LPP.
You should upload some pictures of your print if you want to trade it.

Still looking. If you have a NOTLD print and want to trade with $ added just let me know what you have.
