I just had a look at 14 Amazons as well and I think you are correct. The Arrow actually has more natural grain and is noticeably brighter with better colour (and with that, damage to the film is noticeable). Although it looks older with less detail I think the Imprint is more watchable, even though not ideal, whereas I think The Lady Hermit looks pretty crap with or without comparing it to the Arrow, because of that weird patchy look.
