It's negative splices folks. I was a projectionist and these lines were there on about every print in between every shot.
Realize that 35 hot splices are done by cutting off a bit of the frame before or after the first or last frame of the shot, scrapping away the emulsion, and then hot cementing it to the film or slug of your A/B roll. This will inevitably overlap the shots before and after, so that's what you are seeing: a clear piece of celuloid that is cemented over the film.
