I handled print #00590, an original print. All the leaders are missing, replaced with scrap trailer leaders. There's dirt and a few different light wear patterns on the print, horizontal and vertical. It's not serious except for some green vertical scratches on the right-hand side which are definitely noticable in dark scenes. They can possibly be masked/cropped from view. Otherwise, there's nothing really distracting. The Dolby Digital reads moderately well. This is a passable print for screening.

The cans are incorrectly marked "quad-track".

There's a note enclosed in the can:

ATTENTION:
