In 2012, I provided a number of filmed introductions for the new official Hammer KZfaq channel, including this one - which, as far as I can remember, ended up not being used. At any rate, it hasn't been available for some time and is provided here for education purposes.
My own 16mm print of River Patrol was used as the source for the master used for the new digital upload of the film. I was then serving as Hammer's webmaster and official archivist, and this was among the last projects I worked on for the company.
