Quoting Mr. Haines from the May, 1997 'Wide Gauge 
Film and Video Monthly(TM)': "I also became involved
with the restoration of several 'lost' 3-D films...."Last 
Chance Productions" licensed theatrical rights and 
plans to release them with other shorts on a Roadshow
basis through the U.S. I'm preparing to transfer them to
Sequential Field and Anaglyph systems and package
them with 'Run for Cover' for video and cable release."

I was told that the video print at NSA came from 3DTV
Corporation. I had also heard that Mr. Haines had been
talking with VRex and Dan Symmes. No deal was made 
with Dan Symmes and apparently nothing ever happened
with VRex. The video we saw was 'copy protected' with 
the counter appearing on screen in the lower portion of
the picture. I will post any further information that I might
come across.

Kevin Carps and Sheldon Hanes from 'Last Cance Productions'
were at the 'House of Wax' screening in April and their
3D Festival is planned for next summer in San Diego. I am
not sure of any other plans for a Roadshow with their 3D films.
