Zombie, maybe I should ask Moth3r about this but do you remember what the source is for the VHS widescreen bootleg telecine? If I remember it correctly, it was believed to have been recorded from a projection booth in '77...

the reason I am asking this is there has been discussions about the color of the original theatrical subtitles being yellow in the cinema in dark_jedi's Gout V3 thread, and one of the members here who attended the Baltimore screening recently said they were actually yellow on that print. When they have clearly been white on both the prequels and the SE prints and also white on this bootleg, Puggo Grande and various Jedi footage it makes me doubt it a little without actual photos to back it up, but I'm also ready to believe him as his memories are still fresh, any ideas? Could they have made different subs on different prints, this sounds very unusual and an odd thing to do.
