Kino Lorber 2022 4K restoration Blu-ray although it's still using the incorrect 1.37:1 aspect ratio, see Robert Furmanek's from 3D Film Archive's comment
Otherwise, the new restoration is better in PQ than older releases: https://caps-a-holic.com/c.php?go=1&a=0&d1=17660&d2=15881&s1=198260&s2=168249&i=0&l=0
