I now have four of the previously missing Vitaphone disks for REDSKIN. A great score too!

Back to RED HAIR, wasn't the clip with Clara with the Pelican shown in FRAGMENTS?

If I recall correctly this clip was from a different angle (and farther back) and with better color.

Unfortunately, the printing of RED HAIR was just before Technicolor started to print using their dye-transfer process, and subject to some nasty fading.

To clarify: my question is, to anyone who might know, has more RED HAIR footage turned up other than the two apparently different pelican shots featured in FRAGMENTS and this year's Cinefest? And, while I'm at it, how much total footage exists, and is it from the film proper, or outtakes, or color test shots, or a combination thereof?
