Did you see that mint optical Grizzly Adams on Guy Taylor's table?

Really it's tough to believe it when your ship finally comes in. I bought a silent print when I was 17 years old because Super-8 sound was something I was sure I'd never have. When I was 40 I got a sound machine and regretted the choice. A couple of months ago I saw a sound print of the same film just too cheap. (Not enough to buy a pizza!)

Can't be that simple! Any day now it'll probably spontaneously burst into flames!
I just know it: the Fire Marshall will be sifting through the ashes of my house and his report will say "-because you were too cheap to buy a sound print in 1979."
