'''Availability:''' Rare. It could be seen on video/DVD releases of Republic Pictures' filmography through Artisan Entertainment, as well as releases through Lionsgate Home Entertainment. The 1995 byline variant can be found on the VHS release of ''A Lady Takes a Chance''. Also appeared on the Roku Channel's print of ''Highlander II: The Quickening'', which was clearly derived from a pan-and-scan master from the '90s. Seen on Hallmark Hall of Fame tapes from the era, as well as a few ''Highlander'' VHS releases. Appeared on latest DVD releases made by Republic, such as ''Bound'' and ''Freeway''. Usually saved on future releases after the Lionsgate logo. It's also seen on the VHS print of ''The Tin Soldier.'' | '''Availability:''' Rare.

'''Editor's Note:''' A classic case of a movie studio using its pictures logo for the home video division (''a la'' Universal and Paramount). Even though it was used until 2010, it still retains the Spelling Entertainment reference, even though Spelling dissolved in 1999. | '''Editor's Note:''' A classic case of a movie studio using its pictures logo for the home video division (''a la'' Universal and Paramount).
