Author Topic: Friday the 13th (1980) Tom Doyle Expert Film Handler Posts: 176 From: Bristol, CT, USA Registered: Nov 2002 posted 10-12-2009 06:31 AM                     aka Friday the Thirteenth Paramount/DW DFS flat 1.85 (hard matted) 5 reels mono 95 min Print # 01004 is on Kodak 2383 film stock dated 2004 with high magenta soundtrack. The box label incorrectly states quad-track. The first reel has about a dozen splices (but no jumps) and the fourth reel has some obvious wear in the first couple of minutes. There's also an occasional faint crackling in the audio. Otherwise, the print is in overall excellent condition.  |  IP: Logged Mark J.

There couldn't have been that many lab splices that needed removal. Were these near any other sprocket damage, scratches, or anything else? Was someone removing trophy frames?  |  IP: Logged John Wilson Film God Posts: 5438 From: Sydney, Australia. Registered: Dec 1999 posted 10-12-2009 06:04 PM                     quote: Mark J.
