Not actual equipment or supplies, but something even better: For sale is an ultrasonic lab splice on a film cell from an actual moviefilm. But what makes this lab splice special is that it came from print #1 of the runaway smash movie "Love Ranch". Print #1 is rare in itself, being that there is only one print #1 of any given movie. Print #1 also means it is the best copy, as print #2 is made from print #1, print #3 is made from print #2 and so on. But besides that, it is a known fact that this lab spice was viewed on screen by none other than extreme mega celebrity movie critic Roger Ebert as he watched the film to review it for his eager fans all over the world. Yes, he saw this very splice with his own eyes. Could this image have stayed with him subconsciously and made him give the movie a non-stellar review? No one can say for sure, but the fact is that lab splices do detract from the overall movie experience and probably did have an effect on him as he thought back to his experience watching the movie while writing his review.

This is the actual lab splice you will be receiving:

This is a stock photo taken long ago of Roger Ebert
who many years from the date of this picture would
view the above lab splice on screen. His life had
been building up to this, and now you can own it!

I am asking $10,000 or best offer for this fabulous film cell of a chemical cement ultrasonic lab splice from real moviefilm.
