Sourced in the main from amateur reel-to-reel tape recordings, the archive has been remastered to include high-quality stereo music dubbed between the DJ announcers and advertising where available. With over 100 episodes potentially, most around an hour in...

An episode of "About Faces", an early 1960s game show. Tom Kennedy hosts this episode. Format is includes some aspects of 1950s series "Place the Face". Margaret O'Brien is the celebrity guest. Also, please note that, as this is a daytime series, it featured more advertising than a prime-time series of the same era, and also note that the final segment of the episode is missing from the copy I have. I guess this is from 17 March because of references to Saint Patrick's day.

An episode of popular soap opera "As the World Turns" from 22 August 1960, complete with the original commercials (since this was a daytime show, it features more minutes of ads than a prime-time series). In this episode, Jeff is in the hospital due to alcoholism, and Penny wants him to be taken out.

A great episode with your singing host, Perry Como, and special guests Betty Grable, Brook Benton, and Brenda Lee, plus Joey Heatherton and Renee Taylor.

An episode with your singing host Perry Como, plus special guests Casey Stengel, Ginny Tiu, and Rosemary Clooney. This episode contains the original commercials (of the "send in for a free recipe" kind that many people love), but runs a little short, it is possible that coverage of the election was the reason for this. Unfortunately, the picture quality is quite washed-out.

An episode of the ABC-TV sitcom "The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet". This episode contains some original commercials and a rebuttle to "Rockchester - City of Quality" (I'm only half-joking about the second part). In this episode, Ozzie, Harriet and the parents of David's girlfriend all assume the two are about to get engaged. Cast includes: Ozzie Nelson, Harriet Nelson, David Nelson, Ricky Nelson, John Hubbard, Lucy Prentis, Skip Young, Judi Sherven, and Lyle Talbot.

An episode of this country music series, filmed in 1959 and broadcast in 1960. "What country is this from?", some might ask. Well, the cast is almost entirely American, but it was an Australian series, filmed in the studios of Sydney station TCN-9, though the series was owned by a U.S. company. That's why the production style is a bit rough...Australian television had only begun in late 1956, and the film industry in the country had been dead since the early 1940s (and didn't revive...

Country music show. Filmed in Australia (though owned by a company from elsewhere), starring a largely American cast and American music, though I think the director may have been Australian.
