It's too bad they couldn't include some screen shots.

I think it's a safe bet all of the known SW trailers have been long since been out on Laserdisc and DVD though.

I'd be curious if there were overseas trailers done in a different style from what we saw here.

Why would they do trailers on 16mm?  I thought theaters wouldn't use that film.  Heck, I'm not sure why (most of) ANH is on 16mm, just that you did a project with it!

Still, if it doesn't go higher $30 is worth it, I would think.  Its like a mystery box!

Some college campus theaters have used 16mm for years.  Tv stations used the format before video tape took over. There has also been a collector's market for 16mm movies for ages. (Both legally made and otherwise.)
