The film was restored in 2013 through the Chaplin Mutual Project thanks to the financial support of The George Lucas Family Foundation, The Film Foundation and The Material World Charitable Foundation.
Restoration work was carried out at L'Immagine Ritrovata laboratory in 2013.
The Count (1916) has been restored by Fondazione Cineteca di Bologna and Lobster Films, from a nitrate print in the Lobster Films Collection.
Some fragments were added from a nitrate dupe negative preserved at Cinémathèque Royale de Belgique, a safety fine grain preserved at Cinémathèque française and a nitrate dupe negative from the Blackhawk Film Collection preserved at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
Intertitles have been reconstructed according to the original Mutual Film intertitles reconstructed by Film Preservation Associates and based on 1920s reissue prints.
The surviving elements come from two different negatives. Negative A was restored whenever possible while negative B was used to reconstruct missing or severely damaged shots.
