Why would they do trailers on 16mm?  I thought theaters wouldn't use that film.  Heck, I'm not sure why (most of) ANH is on 16mm, just that you did a project with it!

Still, if it doesn't go higher $30 is worth it, I would think.  Its like a mystery box!

 

Some college campus theaters have used 16mm for years.  Tv stations used the format before video tape took over. There has also been a collector's market for 16mm movies for ages. (Both legally made and otherwise.)
