Vintage 16mm SHELL OIL Educational Film APPROACHING SPEED OF SOUND Chuck Yaeger

Description

Unless otherwise noted, the preview video below shows the entirety of this film at the correct speed, so please refer to the video for details about the total running time. In some instances, I edit the film in the computer to place the most interesting shots at the beginning so you don't have to search for them. The film itself retains the original shot order. In addition to the original physical film itself, if requested, the winning bidder will also receive a download link for an unwatermarked copy of this video (see below for details on the quality of this video). Just be sure to request this when you check out if you want it. If there are sprocket holes visible in my preview scan, I can crop these for you if you wish.
The video clip below is a basic frame-by-frame scan of the film (made with a Moviestuff RetroScan Universal sprocketless film scanner). I have not attempted to clean the film, optimize the exposure/colors, or digitally restore it in any way. You will almost certainly get better results by having the film scanned and restored by a professional. Also note that my "ebay - peahix" watermark does NOT appear on the actual film you'll receive.
