Any word yet on whether this is a pressed disc or a BD-R, or an idea of the quality?

I received my copy on Friday and it is a pressed disc (both BR & DVD). I haven't had a chance to watch the film yet but I did briefly look over a couple of scenes. The transfer appears to be fairly strong and the print is in very good condition. From what I've seen, Bob Hope is amusing (as usual) and Hepburn is... er, less amusing. Maybe my impressions will change with a full viewing.

I hope that this is the first of many TCM Vault blu-rays. They're certainly off to a great start with this release.

I watched this the other night with my wife. Excellent movie! Really really good picture quality. Audio was excellent and very accurate and convienent subtitles and some really good extras. Honestly, one of the best blu-ray blind buys that I have made in recent memory...

Is moviesunlimited.com the only place where you can get this ($29.99)? Amazon doesn't appear to have it.

TCM has it on sale for 24.99: http://shop.tcm.com/the-iron-pettico...ult-collection

These TCM Vault releases seem to be exclusive, judging from past releases.

How can you tell whether it's pressed or burned?

Disc surface is black on the bottom.

Sorry to bump this thread, but has TCM announced anything else with this line? I'd love to see the UPA Jolly Frolics collection on Blu-Ray.
