If it does, I've never seen one.

In fact it does exist as an Italian edition. Not sure if it was an official release or a bootleg though. Our Italian friends might be able to shed some light on this.

I do not own a print on super 8 (I have it in 16mm). But you find more info through this blog:

As you will know also, quality of those Italian prints, official or bootleg can wildy vary from very good to barely watchable...

It won't be great and I'm guessing it very much will not be on low fade stock.

If an official release, given its scarcity, I would equally be very surprised.

...Or even atrocious Alexander btw !!

I had a print of this feature that I got from Italy, as in the photo shown. The image was very sharp, but the entire film was totally faded to red. Although it was 4x600', it was abridged...

Nearly all the Italian prints I ever see now are exactly this way, nearly all completely faded to Red.

Great titles, atrocious quality now, sadly.
