Hello Daniel, how are you?
Here I am. I hope all info about these two Italian prints could be helpful.

THE HUSTLER is not an official print. It's a good b/w mounted on 6*600. Absolutely a rare title.

DJANGO was both printed and distributed with magnetic and optical sound on 6*400 by CIFOP. I know for sure the optical print is a very good one, but I'm not in a position to tell you about used stock.
There was a copy for sale some days ago on Ebay Italia for a cheap price. I ignore if it was finally sold or not.

Remember, anyway, that most of Italian prints were conceived and issued for hiring purposes and it's not so easy to find titles in mint condition.
Good luck.

Hi Rob.
I have a very bad piece of news for you. Unfortunately it's not.
