It should be noted that Blackhawk, (I suppose to save money on color film), would take the color segments from sielnt films, (such as the Phantom of the pera Ball sequence), and splice it into the film itself.
They did this with thier deluxe release of "The Great train Robbery", where the tinted sequences (with hand colored explosions and such) were spliced into the final print that was sold.
Just another example of just how far Blackhawk films went to give us a high quality release. Though erann and CHC are great, the likes of Blackhawk will never be seen again for the collector.
