Old Home Movies – Ruined Forever!

Here is a tale of woe that you’ve probably heard before. You come across some valuable home movies that you should copy off to a DVD and then, guess what!?!
It’s happened to me! I’ll show you the results of my first 16mm sound films from the 1960s that I recently discovered in my collection. Both the separate audio tape soundtrack and the 16mm film exists and I was anxious to bring them together again for YouTube viewers. The final result might make film collectors ill.

I hear that the best conditions are in non-metal containers in a refrigerator. Black and white movie film that is kept carefully in a refrigerator will last for at least 100 years or even longer.

Cool Dark Place …
Cool Dark Place Kerry! I store my films in my basement where it is cool and dark, and never put them in the cans!! That is what makes them get that nasty smell, which causes them to rot and fall apart like that !!
