Effective immediately, if anyone is looking for info on a print that does not yet have a thread (use the "search" feature at the top of this page to verify first), please follow the following practice exactly. I will use the title of "Raiders of the Lost Ark" as an example.Your subject header should look EXACTLY like this:
Raiders of the Lost Ark (request) This should make navigating the subjects MUCH easier. Thanks in advance for your cooperation.

Nope, come to think of it...I've never seen an SR print. I must have dreamed it. Our 70mm is pink/brown also...but still very good condition apart from that. Did anyone ever confirm / deny the SRD print exists? ---------------

I think this is a good idea. That way, the movie title is the beginning of the subject rather than the end of it. There have been times I've wanted to request information, but didn't want to post a "Requesting print info for X" because I felt it would be a matter of time before Brad would request that a different style subject be used. The new style will also be better if a sorting mechanism is ever put in place to sort by title. ------------------

70mm prints of "Raiders of the Lost Ark" from the original release are likely printed on EASTMAN Color Print Film (5381 or 5383 (aka "SP") ) before Kodak introduced the much more stable color print films for general use in 1982-1983. Even prints on the film with older dye technology stored properly (cool, dry and vented) should look decent. Stored improperly (hot, humid, sealed cans), 20 year old prints with the old dye technology are quite red by now:

I would agree with Darryl, however unless you concern yourself with being super perfect, the following would suffice fine:Last Castle ...then again I'm probably guilty of posting The in there. It's not a huge deal either way.
