Firstly, I do know that Ken Films "Empire Strikes Back" just made it into the LPP era in it's last prints, as have been evidenced on this forum, (I have gotten nowhere in talking a part 1 out of a fellow member, but I'm not giving up hope!)
However, I'm pretty sure that no agfa prints of "Empire" exist.
From my source in Germany, the "Empire" prints over there were pretty much shipped in US prints, (do not be misled by the title, "Opti-color" on German prins, they are Kodak SP as well, as are most of the better US prints.
In the 70's, before the advent of LPP, the overseas market was the market that mainly used AGFA or Fuji (another largely good stock), while sadly, the US market mostly used, sadly , eastman pinky or Kodak, which could be hit oir miss.
