I just listed an optical feature on eBay. Check it out. Greystoke: The Legend Of Tarzan.

Sadly, I already have this feature Dan, (I just bought your other two), but it looks to be a good print, great color and somebody is probably going to get a steal on it!

GS1200 Xenon with Elmo 1.0...great combo along with a 16-CL Xenon for that super bright white light.

Kev,

"Greystoke" is on the most recent Derann used film list.

Yeah, but Kevin, I'm betting you'll get it for a lot less from Dan, besides it looks like, (from Dan's stills) that the color is pretty good. On my own copy, (which is pristine), the color pallete, to begin with, is somewhat faded. All the color is there, but since color wasn't a big issue with this print to begin with, the colors will seem somewhat muted. I see little color fade to Dan's print, so it's a good bet. (Thumbs up to you Dan, your a honest Ebayer!)

There is one difference Dan, the running time of this greystroke, for the airlines, is about 1 hour 50 minutes, (perhaps slightly more), and it doesn't have the original ending credits, just a "The End", which I guess I can understand, as by getting rid of the original credits, it allows you another three minutes of actual story time in the film. A number of Optical sound titles do this, as those "cassettes" (so to speak) that these prints would run in could only hold so much.
