OK I can confirm WB is working on a restoration but these things actually take time so whoever wants it will have to wait. It should be noted that WB takes this stuff very seriously and has filed a major lawsuit against Amazon 3rd party sellers ( like the one you linked) who have been selling bootleg copies and they also are about the only studio that does the same on eBay. Again since these guys have pioneered getting thousands of rare films out there I would respect their rights and not go for a pirate copy of this. I am sure when they finish with the restoration it will look great.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
