I had a look at a 35mm print of ESB last year that had only been screened 3 times and had been kept in climate controlled storage. It had very little fade, [...] I only wish the owner would consent to having it scanned.

Did you ask if he would consent? What did he say, exactly?

Sounds like a delicate subject to broach. Not sure how I would word that. But I wonder if he could be made to understand what a benefit it would be to the Star Wars fan community...

Maybe if you showed SW:DE v2.1 to him. :)

I would be scared they would come take my print away!
