I Love Lucy Open/Close (1955)/ Viacom Enterprises "V" (1976) *Warped* | [16mm]

From "The Star Upstairs". Only the opening and closing were saved, even though they are both warped. The rest of the film was disposed of due to a severe case of vinegar syndrome and warping.

Ooh, not only the film is warped, but the V of Doom is ultra dark, which makes it extra spoopy :o.

[@randomnicious4490]

It's probably ultra dark because of the vinegar syndrome and the major deterioration on the film.

[@MATTFROMMI]

At least the full V of Doom is included and not cut off at the end like what WKBD once did several times back when they had these prints of this show around the 1980's.

[@traeyboy529]

That's probably because they knew people hated the damn thing.

I wish there is an app that could possibly undo or fix the wrap audio. Talk about a great idea.

Thank you!

You can hardly even see the V of Doom!

[@cynthiapickett7403]

...VERY warped!

[@travis7310]

I wonder why the rest of the film was thrown away. I'm guessing it was in extremely bad shape. At least the opening and closing was salvaged!

[@TheVintageTVArchive]

+travis7310 The film was in very bad shape. It’s a shame I had to throw it away. :/

[@travis7310]

TheVintageTVArchive It happens. Certain shows weren't stored under the best conditions.

At the beginning of this video, at 0:00, I can barely read the warning scrolling up, mirrored, before the countdown... *""htiw alper ekarb ro tsi ed el eht l rae siht t ap ton oD""* I have _no_ idea what that actually means!

[@TheVintageTVArchive]

I guess you’re… kinda close, except everything is backwards. That portion reads, "Do not patch this leader. If leader is torn or broken replace with new leader."

[@kalbright3275]

[@marioalexanderski9598]

Why the audio is warped

[@TheVintageTVArchive]

borisruleselsayescaillouno 047 It’s because the film itself is warped.
