Puggo's 16mm restoration

 All the other stills vary around a bit, but here this one matches the Technicolor still almost exactly. There is a bit more blue in it, which i would say is maybe a bit unnatural and a byproduct of the telecine or aging. I would say this is the best colour reference for the two shots that precede and follow it. The first one looks like it has a bit of an exposure problem in the centre screen perhaps but you get a sense of the coloring and brightness of the shot (pinkish sky with some orange, and fairly bright but duller than full daylight; it's pretty consistent with the next shot of Luke, which probably was filmed at the same time, and the sunset insert done as an insert by second unit at a later date and location).
