        Solo Performance was a abridged and a very worn 16mm print from Derek Simmonds own collection being a Formby fan. The complete print you have was mine for decades and a 2K scan remains here for personal posterity/ nostalgia.
        All S8 prints were on poly.

        For your own records. The 16mm you have was last shown publicly in Blackpool after i discoved George's wife's grave which was much neglected
        I had her grave stone restored and we projected that print to close the case book as it were.

        Just three prints of The Friday Show exist from my research. Two acetate and one Poly. I'll probably take it to Blackpool as a couple of people have asked to see George's farewell at some point.

        Solo Performance is a must have on 8mm as Derek himself supplied the master. Good memories...and a great 400ft.
