Under the video section, it states "The Magnificent Ambersons is presented in its original aspect ratio of 1.37:1. According to the liner notes, the original camera negative no longer survives; this transfer was sourced from a nitrate fine grain held by the Museum of Modern Art."

However, I checked the liner notes of my Blu-ray copy and in the "About the Transfer" section didn't find any mention of the OCN no longer surviving. So not sure what to make of it.

I could of sworn I read somewhere that it survives. Maybe it’s condition is too fragile.
