I miss this classic title in my collection. Maybe someone can help me to find a (colorful, complete and clean) used print of DR NO.
Once I did let go a very good chance; this won’t happen again.
Thank You.
Oliver
There is an optical sound feature of Dr No on ebay, but it has some fade and there is every possibility that it is slightly edited. It's a UK ebay seller, very reliable.
Optical Sound would be great, but the colors should be there. I own the Italian print (faded to red) which is also slightly edited. So an optical colorful print would be great.
It's on ebay right now, being sold by "McJean and John". They are members here. Good folk. If you look at the screenshots, so certainly show fade, but other sections are not that bad, but I am sure that if you contact them, they will give you a very honest appraisal of the color of the print as, sometimes, screenshots don't always do justice to a print.
Hi Oliver. The Ebay auction listing is ours (ICSuper8, Ebay id Mc-jeanandjohn). The screenshots on the listing give a fair reflection of the degree of fade I think. There is still some colour contrast, some blue, green, yellow but with fade. Fairly typical of optical sound prints of the era - not the worst but definately not full colour. Its an airline edit I think with a run time of approx 100 mins compared to the cinema release of 110 mins. Hope that helps. It is a pretty clean print with no significant lines/scratching, just a very occasional fine line here and there and the odd fleck. Hope that helps
