CLASSIC 'SCOPE TRAILERS

Three 'Scope trailers here: The Robe, A Fistful of Dollars & Rebel Without a Cause, which stars James Dean "The Dynamic Star of East of Eden.

The trailer for The Robe, famous for being the first feature in CinemaScope, rather than for anything else, has some wear and joins in the master, but is nevertheless, great fun to have.

Clint Eastwood stars in A Fistful Of Dollars which is described as something like: "First film of it's kind - but won't be the last!". Quite rare for the film industry to get a prediction right.

Rebel Without a Cause is regarded as some sort of James Dean classic and so his fans will be delighted with this release.

The print quality varies between items depending on the age of the master used. Generally the definition is quite good though the colour is a little pale here and there. That said this is a cracking good 'Scope reel with a good variety of material. Some day sets are included.
