FORMAT: 35mm
CONDITION: ★★★½
NOTES: Print may or may not have been supplied by the Cinema Museum, as the disclaimer almost appeared but was cut off through fading in. Dusty but beautiful print. Changeovers were marked with large, trailing black squares, and a short green line was present at the bottom all the way through until the last reel, which was clearly sourced from a different print due to its redder tint.

FORMAT: 35mm
CONDITION: ★★★½
NOTES: Screened as part of the Ginger Rogers season. Very dusty and scratchy with several cuts and changeovers that look like they had to salvage the last frames from alternate prints of the film, but hardly a line of dialogue or number was ruined by the cuts until The Shadow Waltz.

FORMAT: 35mm
CONDITION: ★★★½
NOTES: Prominently dusty, several cuts, the audio briefly dips on a few occasions and both reels when it’s clearest that Ace and Ginger are having a fallout as well as the end credits sound fuzzy, like a plastic bag was being rustled all the way through.
