OB = Original Box. As for poor old Yule he's probably turning in his grave.

It's probably the Directors "Special Edition Christmas Cut". [Razz]

I remember several years back a dealer listed a certain Hammer Horror Dracula film with the description, "...starring Christopher Lee as the blood-sucking count".

Except they forgot to include the "o" in the last word...

Sorry, very rude I know, but the film stayed on the list for a couple of months and everytime I read this description it made me chortle!

PS. Just in case anyone takes offence, this was very obviously just a simple typo by one of THE very best dealers around!
