I put this up for sale a while ago "make-me-an-offer-style" and now I thought I´d see what happens with a "price tag".
140 euros plus postage. [Roll Eyes]

This is a pan-and-scan print of "2001 -A Space Odyssey" Full Length. Mounted on White ELMO 4 * 800 ft reels in two cardboard boxes (no artwork). Good colours/contrast/sound.
Good quality stripe, could probably easily be rerecored into stereo.
Bought this print from Derann about eight years ago, think I paid £200 then.

An interesting fact is Kubrick preferred the pan-and-scan-route when 2001 was distributed on VHS, looking at his films it´s evident he liked aspect ratios no wider than 1,66 - 1,85. The 1,33 framing actually works fine for this title as you can bet your life Kubrick had last say on all compositions. [Wink]
