Looks really good, kudos on the great cleanup work. The captured stills look kind of digitized, so it is hard to see as much of the considerable effect, but I assume that is just a scaling/compression issue for size. These are the kind of proper restorations we deserve for a film of this historical significance. Like it or not (the movie), it has become a cultural landmark. If Disney were smart they would open up whatever they had in their archives now to start an 'official' one and release it through Criterion in the next 5 years.

I am just really happy that preservations like this are taking place, in spite of all the hurdles in place to do so.
