Interesting about the tint/frame size difference...
I was thinking about that. If the blue tint was removed (using "Manual Color Correction" of a paint program to set the off-kilter RGB value of the B&W portraits back to it's R=G=B value, applied to the entire image), what would be revealed?
Well, what do you know? Really close to my previous "quick & dirty" color correction.

Thanks, but only because I remembered that jingle from Brazil:
Lucas Films! You do the buy, we do revising!

Any way to do a frame comparison with that letterboxed Ebay print? I know the images of it are pretty lousy...

$800 ... ouch! My wallet is having sympathy pains!
The posted images weren't too bad (this one had most objects for lining up, but is poorly lit) ...
... and I was able to line it up to show the little addition vertically but noticeable loss horizontally:
The eBay film here was resized to match and is 25% transparent to let through some of the underlying DVD capture (still at non-stretched DVD-anamorphic).
