I have this on the personal word of Gene Rodenberry himself when he was in NY for a Star Trek convention in the Roosevelt Hotel. In fact he showed the entire film, The Cage. It was, howver, in black and white. He said that he was in the process of building a color version. The original color copies were lost or destroyed. The bw copy was his personal property. I think the plan was to integrate the shots from the menagerie with other color pieces that remained. There are several cute scenes with the female yeoman whom Captain Pike finds a disturbing presence on the bridge and orders her no to come to the bridge unless absolutely necessary. Of course it seems that it is necessary for her to come to the bridge just at the wrong times and she is bumbing into the Captain. She also asks oike whom he would have chosen.
