Castle
200 feet
Super 8 sound
Universal 8
400 feet
Super 8 sound
The 2 extracts are mutually exclusive. Castle focused on the circus: Mae's sideshow burlesque song and dance, and the lion taming. U8 focused on the romance with Cary Grant and subsequent courtroom scene. I would have preferred less editing during the courtroom scene, since this shows Mae at her best. We do, however, get a nice song from her with Grant at the piano, albeit taking up footage. Shown together, they make a really nice condensation of the movie. Print quality is typical Castle and U8, meaning very good to excellent.

I have the Universal 400ft, now I'll have to look out for the 200ft.
