Thanks for that and yes good guess with Hong Kong. That's what people over in the daz forums are saying, when I asked the same question there. Also looks like the cinema is still there, just a lot smaller than it was back in '78.

Cool gift to have gotten.

Yep very much so, moreso as these are so quirky. Indeed thinking of framing it alongside an original Empire Strikes Back film cell I got by sheer fluke a few years back.

Fox wanted to get the Empire trailer out to as many TV stations and movie theatres as possible, so they put the trailer onto rolls of film left over from the production of Empire, including rolls with deleted and unused scenes.

These where originally meant to be thrown away. Fortunately someone rescued some and on one roll was 2-3 seconds of the now infamous "Wampa Room" deleted scene...(3:56 in at... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQEiNJnkQAw)

Obviously at such a short duration this wasn't much use, so the roll was cut into individual cells which where sold at just $20 each. As we all do browsing away looking for something else and clicked on the wrong link.....and well it's only 20 bucks would be my excuse to the better half 😀

Pinky - you left the lens cap of your mind on again.
