Despite the hostile reactions to his original post, it seems Spider was right on the money.
Here's my own captures from my own copy of the 1992 Mitsubishi pressing:
As you can see, it's still shrinking.
It should be noted that both shrinks happen at reel changeovers.
[In case you're wondering why I haven't shown consecutive frames, it's because I don't want to bother IVTC'ing.]
And one more, taken from the same side of the same disc:
The color bars aren't very uniform, nevertheless I tried to get my capture settings 'in the ballpark'.
At this point I'm wondering if the shrinking ratio really ever got fixed.
Did Mitsubishi make more than one pressing run? Or did Fein give Davis misinformation?
