Line 44:
Until recently only one reel with a color sequence was thought to have survived, in the collection of the [[UCLA Film and Television Archive]]. The complete film exists in a black-and-white copy apparently made in the 1950s for [[television]] showings, though it remained uncut and intact as released in 1929.
 
In 2013, Deborah Stoiber from the [[George Eastman House]] [[film archive]] recently visited [[Prague]] to examine the sole existing color copy of ''The Mysterious Island''. The US film experts now hope that in cooperation with the [[Czech National Film Archive]], they will be able to restore the color print of ''The Mysterious Island'', and eventually show it to audiences in the United States and elsewhere. After the complete Technicolor print was discovered in Prague in December 2013, a new print of the film premiered at the 33rd [[Pordenone Silent Film Festival]] in October 2014.<ref>http://www.cinetecadelfriuli.org/gcm/allegati/2014_CalendarioGCM_w3.pdf</ref>
