I cropped the German reel to the projection matte, there is a bit more at the top, bottom and sides, the scans exceed the film width/height in all directions (i.e. each frame has a bit of the previous and next frame in shot) so everything on the frame is scanned.
As mentioned, these are for missing frame detection, nothing more. I really appreciate the help in finding the missing frames, it makes the restoration effort easier.

However, the full frame is never seen in the cinema, which is why you don’t notice the strip at the bottom of each scene change splice in the cinema, or the groaty edges on the left and right sides. Obviously for the archival scan I keep the full frames, sprockets and soundtrack area, but for the restored ‘cinema’ version it will be cropped to the projection mask used during projection, as that is what one is meant to see.

I can post another section with the complete soundtrack area etc. if anyone is interested.
