Complete b/w 16mm print of Alfred Hitchcock's The 39 Steps for sale. Mounted on 2 x 2000' metal spools. Minor wear in terms of occasional light lines, but nothing at all serious. No vinegar syndrome.
£90 plus shipping. Please UK only - it will cost a fortune to ship this abroad! Or if you are based in London I could meet centrally to hand it over.

Chris, what's the contrast and sound like on this? I've had so many dupey prints of this, looking for something a bit more like theatrical density. If it's a good 'un I'll take it.

Hi Stuart, I know exactly what you mean, but I’m afraid I’ve never seen a copy of this film, celluloid or digital, that has nice theatrical density with rich blacks. I’ve no idea why. So I wish you luck with the search, but I’m not sure you’ve found your dream print yet!

Hello Chris
If still available I would like to buy your 39 Steps print for £70 please - one thing I must ask though is the sound nice and loud, clear and full range - ie: full bass, treble and clear dialogue? If not then I will leave it for another buyer instead.

No problem Chris thank you for letting me know - I do already have a print on 16mm but I found the sound on mine is unclear hence I was looking for an upgrade.
