This DVD edition has been mastered from an 8mm reduction print that has been tightly-cropped and transferred at faster-than-natural-speed rate. Identifying logomarks are superimposed over the lower right corner of the picture to discourage video transfer piracy.

The film is accompanied by a soundtrack compiled from dopey preexisting recordings. Annoying, at best.

This edition is now out-of-print. Well, it's not much of a loss.
