We got an optical print of MP and another theater in our chain, that didn't have stereo, got the mag stereo. We traded prints and ran the stereo version for several weeks. Sound was fine with most occurring on L-C-R. Not much on Surrounds as I recall.

True, that's not the original one-sheet for "MP". Might have been for the early 70's re-release. But, did see it in late spring of 1965 at my hometown theatre...and got the LP stereo soundtrack not until 1967.

That could be the worst poster in the history of motion pictures. POPPINS was great...this poster is just the worst.
