'''Availability:''' Uncommon. Seen on prints of some Republic Pictures videos from the early 90s.

This is also preserved on Lionsgate DVDs of Republic Pictures films. Surprisingly, it appears on TCM's prints of ''The Fabulous Dorseys'' and ''Venus in Furs,'' and at the beginning of a UK GREAT! Movies Classic airing of ''The Flying Deuces''. Also appears on a British VHS of ''The Langoliers''. | '''Availability:''' Uncommon.
