I won't even go into the Grizzly issue, as that is a known ...

... but I would like to find a good color print of "The Earthling" as well as a good "color" print of the super 8 optical sound feature, "Stagecoach" (1939) as, i have recently discovered that this B/W feature, printed on color stock has had a at least a few prints survive the ravages of color fade and still look great, (one sold just recently) ...

... as for the "Earthling" print, this is one of those that was actually printed on two different film stocks. most of them were printed on Kodak SP and are quite faded to brown these days, but there were some that were printed on some form of early low fade film stock and still look quite good. i know as i have one, but it is also quite scratched, so I'd like to find one that still looks great.
