I have been fortunate enough to track down a low fade print of The Blues Brothers after selling my Super 8 Universal digest 2 parter. Who went to a fellow collector on this forum.

Impossible to find on 35mm as most original prints suffer from a degree of fade.

As Chuck Berry would say, you never can tell !

Blimy Robert, that is one great find. [Wink]

Mind you Tom, I did have a chance in getting a print from Paul Foster many years ago. Being sold privately if that makes sense. Cost back then was £350 but decided to not purchase it as it was pretty expense. Going back about 20 years ago.

I have never seen this title offered ever since. Hard to find in Super 8, even harder to find in 16mm.
