I was projecting this film today and notice a telephone symbol on both sides of the title on the last reel. I didnt check the others to see if they had it too, but does anyone know why they did this? Reel 2 cap code was also painfully visible.

I noticed this, too. Apparently Deluxe likes to put weird symbols on the leaders. There's another similar one that looks like a bomb (did that use that on prints of "Gigli" and/or "Justin and Kelly"?).
