Always enjoy the 1938 Technicolor "Robin Hood". Happy to say I have both the first edition of "Glorious Technicolor" by Fred E. Basten, 1980, A.S. Barnes & Co. publisher. The book is out of print and somewhat hard to find these days. And the 1998 one hour TV documentary "Glorious Technicolor" as seen on TCM. TCM has repeated, from time to time, this fine history of the Technicolor Co. Hosted and narrated by Angela Lansbury. A great extra on the Robin Hood DVD. I also have in my collection, along with many three strip Technicolor films, several 2 strip Technicolor shorts and films from the 20's and early 30's The Widescreen Museum web site listed in the previous post is an extensive and fun tour of all wide screen and color film processes. Highly recommended.
