Yes, I did notice the difference in the main title up to the cast credits, which were the same on both. Why did Universal see fit to make this change at the time?
Is there any truth to the rumour that a 35mm print was turned up in recent years? People have commented that the clips in the Photoplay Chaney documantary look to be from a 35mm source...probably speculation on their part?

Yes, I knew it was too good to be true...
Regardless, I'm glad David Shepard had a chance to go back and spruce up the previous release. I've noticed he has periodically went back and revisited titles when a better print has come his way, as with NOSFERATU and THE CAT AND THE CANARY.
The Charlie Chaplin DVDs he produced for Image are superior to the later Warner releases. If you have them, hang on to them...
