For comparison here is what the former site of the Loews Capitol looks like now:

I never saw any of the POTA films in any of the big theaters in Manhattan until 2008 when the Ziegfeld showed Planet for the 40th Anniversary. 

Though, I did see Marooned with James Francicus at the Loews State on Broadway.

Only wish now I was that smart in '68.

When you say the original DVD set do you mean the set released in 2001 or the set released in 2006?

Well the closest I ever got was sitting in the back seat of my parents car and driving past the Kips Bay theater on the East Side and seeing the marquee with Escape on it.

This is where most of the extras first appeared, except for those in that "Behind the Planet of the Apes" special edition 2-disc set, which I can't recall when it came out. There's been "alot" of POTA DVDs! The "Legacy" collection came out in 2006, but when did that "Head" thing come out? Holy crap, I forgot about the "Head"! I guess that came out the same time as the "Legacy" set, but I said no to the head. Good thing too, as the cartoon series came out separately several months later and was completely remastered.

OK it sounds like you have the Evolution box set. No reason to keep them. No real extras and the DVD weren't even anamorphic.

You can tell an original 1968 PLANET LP because it'll have slightly thicker cardboard, the LP itself will also be thicker, and the thing that absolutely tells you it's from '68 is a note on the disc's label telling you the original recordings were made on "35mm magnetic film."

The theme of Planet of the Apes on lp has two different versions and they were on both my gatefold editions(the non gatefold sounds like the film version)one about 20 seconds in after the piano finishes and the brass and srings announce the title just before it gets quite again, one version is much more percussive before it quites down and the other is similiar to the film and dvd versions. My mother told me(in 69 ) that most soundtracks after the film soundtrack is made and edited to the film, the official sountrack is made and recorded and released on whatever medium(Lp, CD,Tape). My point is that the Lp has two different recorded themes,its true I have both. John M.

What's on the film's soundtrack, and on the DVD and Blu-ray is a stereo remix from the mono downmix from the original stereo masters (in fact, how many tracks are one the original masters I don't know), but PLANET could be lovingly restored to full multi-track stereo surround IF that company known as Fox wanted to spend the money on it.
