Film Masters has 2025 new 2K restoration in Blu-ray, but seems to be mostly the same PQ wise to the 2016 The Film Detectives OOP Blu-ray https://slow.pics/c/pt6Z651b The 2016 Blu-ray might be even a bit smoother also it's negligent.
DVDBeaver review for Film Detectives Blu-ray http://www.dvdbeaver.com/film5/blu-ray_reviews_73/patterns_blu-ray.htm
Film Masters restoration is available in full in youtube but it's significantly worse with the youtube compression.
