I could not find S8 box art anywhere for the Derann 2x 400ft release of Dames. So I made my own, using the Derann template that was used on all the other Derann Busby Berkeley releases, such as 42nd street:

That certainly threw me there Paul,I was thinking I can't recall
that cover.First class job there, a question I'd like to ask is where
were you guys when some of the cartoon like boxes were being
churned out by the big distributors.Some of the examples I've
seen done by people like yourself,put the pro's to shame.

Thanks Hugh. I must say that the Derann Warner/Berkeleys were among the best box art I have ever seen on super 8. The front graphics and the notes on the back were always great, and I have done my own version on the (now added) Dames back cover above.
