Paramount worked from the OCNs so the BDs credits are probably original if the text wobbles with the image. I think the DVDs credits are of a NTA reissue/TV print. NTA (who owned the Republic library) were notorious for modifying credits (sometimes doing completely new, simple background ones) and removing references to the original distributors.

I'll take a look and let you know.
I have an Arthaus DVD, its image and audio look very original (I assume it's identical with the Kinowelt DVD here: dvdbeaver), different with other releases.
Here's the opening credits picture: Thanks given by: Onti

The text wobbles with the image but I still think they are not the original credits. The same goes for "The African Queen". |
