My 35mm's were from the daytime runs, with cut footage wound onto the end of the reel. Of course, I put the footage back where it was supposed to go!! The daytime version was cut by one minute for more commercial time.

Those 35mm prints must look awesome! The prints used for my DVD are taken from 16mm and show some occasional signs of age (jumping due to broken sprocket holes and such), but this does not impair my enjoyment of the show. The DVD also came with 2 "bonus" episodes of December Bride. The gentlemen who sold me the set used to post many old and obscure series, but has been inactive on ioffer for several years now. I posted on SitcomsOnLine that I had done a copyright search on P&G, and I was informed that due to new copyright laws, P&G wouldn't be completely out of copyright until 2057! At which time I would be 105!
