Design for Leaving Restored Opening Rings
Warner Brothers released a restoration of Design for Leaving, but included the Blue Ribbon reissue opening and closing rings instead of those original to the cartoon.
This is from a 16mm print of the film that include those original, though faded, rings.
I was able to restore the opening ring colors using a series of layer masks and the blend if feature in photoshop. All the lettering on the first ring card is original to the print, but the lettering & shield on the second ring card is from Little Boy Boo, as I was unable to improve the quality of print's features enough to match the quality of the first ring card.
Title cards belong to the print and have been cleaned up by me as well.
Here is the complete WB restoration with the opening and closing credits replaced.
