This budget DVD-R edition has been mastered from a 16mm reduction print manufactured by Hollywood Film Enterprises. The source print and the video transfer here are far better than those of its companion film in this budget edition.
The film is likely accompanied by a compilation of early film music from a variety of preexisting sources.
