It didn't cost much, thankfully. Got it today.

Took a while to get rolling, as all three reels needed to be rewound. The projector also tortured me by munching up the leader on two reels.

This print is really pink and badly scratched. In spite of the WB/Kinney logo, it's the post '77 cut so far. (Watching this slightly out of order, so I haven't gotten to SEN scene with the kids yet to be 100% certain.) Curiously, the final reel has a WB television logo on the end, but nothing has been cut for tv.

I will attempt some screencaps from the DV tape, but it won't be a pretty sight!

Weird...

Glad the bulb didn't cost you too much, the faded and scratchy print was maybe to be expected, hopefully it will come to some use, thanks for the update.
