A Disney cell from ww12345's gallery http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/Song-Of-The-South/post/639161/#TopicPost639161 was used as a same-scene color target:

To produce the color correction, I tried for the Olympic gold. But to assume that a cel is an accurate depiction of what was originally on film is a bad assumption. Animation was often made with over-reaching or just plain weird colors to counter particular film stock limitations to produce the desired colors. Unlike my first attempt some pages back, this attempt is on poita's new LUT-enhanced capture (a better & brighter starting point from the previous capture):

LUT capture cel-guided color correction

I did what I could to pull out the green of the fox's shirt, but that seemed to be to big a "spike" in the color curve that affected parts of his apron. Also, adding what green I could affected the blue of rabbit's trousers. All the while, I kept close watch on the rope and other fox & rabbit color. It ended up not much different from that previous adjustment's correction, but still short of the target (even if that target might be an unrealistic one). It would be great if Zip Doodah (hope you're follow the thread) could post a screenshot of this scene to see how it looks on film (with most of the original color intact).

Anyway, here are the numbers I used. Despite my desire for adjustment in R-G-B sections exclusively (in Histogram), I was forced to make additional tweaks using joined R-G-B adjustments, in Histogram and Hue/Saturation/Lightness, to increase the contrast and color saturation, respectively:

             low gamma   high midtone
RED        12        1.2   255        +25
GREEN     7         1.0   255        +20
BLUE        0         0.8   255        +20

               low gamma   high midtone
LUMINANCE      0        1.0    255        -10

SATURATION   +10

I'll try this again on the live action part (the coach scene) to see if a good correction made there also produces a good result when applied blind to the cartoon part.
