jsac : TECHNICOLOR PRINT DELIVERY SPEEDED Two years ago Technicolor started an expansion pro¬ gram from 160,000,000 feet per year print manufac¬ turing volume to a goal of 320,000,000 feet a year by the end of 1948. Technicolor is already enjoying more than 50% of this increased capacity, which it is EM¬ PLOYING ENTIRELY TO IMPROVE THE DELIVERY TIME OF PRINTS. Domestic Deliveries By the end of 1948 it is expected that Technicolor print deliveries will be back to normal, that the lapse of time until delivery of prints on the average will be about 5 months from the completion of photography and about 2 months from the time Technicolor receives the cut negative. Foreign Deliveries Interval between approval of the foreign sample print and delivery of foreign version release prints has been reduced to about 3 months and time required by Technicolor to prepare a foreign version sample print has been reduced to about 5 weeks. THE TIME OF DELIVERY OF TECHNICOLOR FOREIGN VERSION PRINTS IS BACK TO NORMAL. TECHNICOLOR Motion Picture Corporation HERBERT T. KALMUS President and General Manager 'ubUshed by Robert E.
