MGM
DFS
6 reels
119 minutes
Academy 1.37 (with clear matte)
mono

I handled print #01001. It was in as-new condition.
I see no edge marking on the film stock, but it's mylar.
The can labels are incorrectly marked DTS.

Each 20 min reel is made up of two 10 min segments joined with 4-perf splicing tape. There's sometimes a noticable color shift at the joins and the reel changes. Similarly, the opening credits (2-3min) are a separate segment on reel 1, but printed without any soundtrack. I'm not sure if that's how it was originally.
