Hello Oliver

Yes, I did see that, at that price I wish it was scope. Strange, the "Buy it Now" has increased since yesterday. It was cheaper then the asking for the Bond film.

Question, does anyone know how this is done? how does buying through Ebay in another country work? I tried logging in using my US account but it will not accept the login. Do I need to open a new account?

I tell you, if you are able to track down an original kempski scope print of this title, you will be absolutely FLOORED at bot only the sharpness but the incredible COLOR!!!

I don't know if Derann kept the original leaders on all of these print. I do know that mine has on it's leader before the countdown, "D.Kempski", and is an agfa print. [Smile]

Thank you Oliver and Alan:)

The Redfox print looks to have nice color and sharpness. Cany always tell from pictures but the scope version looks soft.
Can anyone comment on the Derann scope version if you have seen it? Would you consider it right up there in quality by Deranns standards?

Osi, I would love a copy of the kempski version, I have seen screen caps, I agree the quality is top notch.
I think these are getting rarer as time goes by.

Alan,
I own the Derann print and it’s true that it is on the soft side.
But it’s not „The Little Mermaid“-soft.
And I don’t think that this feature works in flat.
I am happy with the scope version.
I screened it on a 3 metres screen and it looked great.

Yes I have it and I think its a little soft as well. But its very impressive in Scope and really is the way it should be seen. Especially the scene with the clown and the little boy. It's ruined in the Pan and Scan version. But the flat version looks much sharper to me.

The person selling the scope version does not list selling to the US so I tried to contact him but he does not take any questions. He will only take bank transfers and no returns.
I do not like not being able to contact him. this seams is a little risky.
