I would pay a lot of money for a full length print of Jaws scope super 8 or 16mm.
My fave film of all time, I have the 200ft cut down and the 2 X 400ft cut down but they have colour fade.

Perhaps I could spent a thousand euros once (every few years!),but not for one film.For at least four!! .As I do have most of the biggies I wanted,(Gone with the Wind,2001 a Space Odyssey,The Sound of Music,most of the Disney era Disney features,most of the MGM musicals,Robin Hood,El Cid,Romancing the Stone,Those Magnificent Men....etc etc) I am not particularly dying for much more. I would like to add Jurassic Park and The Abyss but only under 250 each!

For me it would be a scope good colour print of How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying, just in case anyone had a print they are willing to part with!

He was quoted as saying: "My most prized possession is a Super 8 copy of Enter The Dragon. There are only twenty in the whole world, and I have one of them right here. It’s worth about three grand, probably more."
I am assuming that its the Scope version of this film and feature length but then again.. Maybe i'm wrong and thats not the one he has? Every picture I have seen of Umit holding up "Enter the Dragon" is the 4 x 400fter. Hmm...But at any rate $3000 grand for a Super 8 print? No for that I would get the 16mm Scope LPP version. I saw last year a 35mm Print restored with the extra scenes with the priest walking sold on EBay for $3000. Beautiful print.

Shorty ...

I thought you already had that 400ft "Battle"? That is a hard find, and it's fairly expensive when it does come up on ebay!

Need anyone ask? A good color print of "Life and Times of Grizzly Adams" !!!

... and it's out there, I just KNOW it is!!!! [Big Grin]

Pasquale,
I remembered your post here when I saw this ad. That one print you might be interested in. Goldfinger on ebay. Some features are not easy to find in a search on ebay because the seller neglects to put obvious words in the title, like "Feature" and "Film".
