Take It Out in Trade was written and directed by Wood during his long downward spiral into alcoholism and pornography. Long (though disputedly[1]) believed to be alost film, three cans of outtake footage were found in the projection booth of aSanta Monica movie theatre[1] and released onVHS bySomething Weird Video in 1995 asTake It Out in Trade: The Outtakes.Rudolph Grey, the author of Wood biographyNightmare of Ecstasy (1992), claimed he located a print during research for his book. The outtakes were the only commercially available footage from the production for over twenty years, until the full 80-minute film's recovery, restoration and release on Blu-ray in 2018.[2][3] The eventual home video release was sourced from a 16mm theatrical print and scanned by theAmerican Genre Film Archive (AGFA).[3]
