Eastman LPP color prints from 1983 forward have generally held good color, though I've seen a few go to vinegar (which I suspect often has much to do with poor processing). The cyan or blues typically fade first in the older Eastman stocks and in many cases the yellow, magenta, and overall contrast will hold up for many years longer. But I've also seen SP prints fade mostly to brown and Fuji prints fade mostly to purple. At least one 16mm print I have has faded almost entirely to yellow and is almost invisible on the screen unless projected through a violet filter.
