That better be handdrawn by mr. Lucas himself, either that or the seller was stoned out of his mind when he posted it.

"professionally cleaned and treated so the colours are sharp" !!

Cleaned I can understand, but what is "treated so the colours are sharp"??

It makes me laugh, he last watched them 5 years ago, and he's basing that viewing on his description, a lot of things can happen to film in 5 years, I can tell you!

But what gets me, is he's only listed them on the "Other Formats" listing, which I would imagine will only interest film collectors in general, why didn't he post it on there "Star Wars" category, he might then have a chance with a rich "Star Wars" fan, still I suppose he's hoping people just put "Star Wars" in the search, and see what comes up.

Does this come with the full length movie hidden somewhere?

I guess the seller doesn't research the going price on these films.

I posted a link about this in "Ebay oddities" before I read this thread, so please accept my apologies for the duplication. He says he bought it from a film fanatic 5 years ago. I hope that he didn't get caught and pay a silly amount for it as well, you know what those film fanatics are like [Big Grin]

Yes, I would say he did not research this before posting this item for sale!

Color treated? [Smile]

Heck, that's what you'd pay for a scope version of the film in 16mm!! [Smile]
