Does anyone know if HELP was ever released on Super 8 in full length? As this is a title which is very hard to find in any film format 16mm or 35mm. Super 8 being the cheaper alternative.

I have been told that most prints that have come along in any format have faded some what as this film was originally filmed in Eastman Colour.

So i guess the chances are in finding a print unfaded will be nil unless it comes from a technicolor printing or early 80s LPP print?

The only official super 8 "Help" release was the trailer which I believe Niles or Red Fox put out on a Beatles Trailer reel. The feature may have surfaced in some kind of import or bootleg print but that was it.
