[QuadList] AmpexVR1100pt2

Typical low-grade kine.  Lots of lens dirt on that piece!  It may not even be a kine - it might be literally shot off a monitor in the dark.  I very much doubt that this particular print ever went out on sales calls.

It's been lovely but I have to scream now.

  Thanks, Dennis.

  I'm sure you're right.  Good point about the origin of the kine.  I hadn't considered that.  It probably wasn't done by Ampex.  Any idea what might have created the dark vertical smear in the upper-right quadrant on the film?

    I offer:


    I'm sure it originated on videotape but somewhere along the line, it was archived as a kinescope recording.  Ampex may not have been involved in the kine recording.   In those days, kine was very common.
