I wonder then, given the pretty big red shift, does this date to 1980, or was it a print that repertoire cinema had or a private collector had that dates maybe to the mid-80s instead? Print pinkness is a sign of aging and shouldn't be there if it is 1980. I just assumed it was some weird video transfer thing that happened, but you may be on to something.

I don't think it's from the mid-80s because Fritz's website say it was bought in 1982 in Qatar. Maybe you were right in your first assumption that it was some weird video transfer thing. Another possibility is there could have been some error made while the tapes were being copied.
