In the late 1960s, the original CinemaScope camera negative was damaged when the film was blown-up to 70mm for a theatrical re-release. This, along with the problematic Eastmancolor stock, which tended to fade, made a restoration impossible for many years. The current restoration of the film was transferred from a clean interpositive. Meantime, the standard, non-anamorphic version remained in pristine condition through the years from disuse and was frequently leased for television broadcast. This is the version most people were familiar with until the advent of home video.
