How would I find a recording of a television show from the early 1970's?
- jameypi 3y agoMy parents were on "The Newlywed Game" in the 70's and we are trying to track down the episode. We have reached out to Sony Pictures (they own the rights now) and a few YouTube creators that have some videos from the show, but have lucked out. Any ideas?
- adastra22 3y agoHave you reached out to the people mentioned in the Wikipedia article (directors, producers, etc)?
- jameypi 3y agoThanks! I have started to do just that. Including the host, who is still alive.
- adastra22 3y agoYeah I doubt they’d have any copies, but maybe they’d know who to contact. Or maybe see if they remember anyone who was involved with the technical side. Those people might know where archival copies are stored.
- mattl 3y agoDo you know which episode number they were on?
- adastra22 3y agoHave you tried the library of congress, Smithsonian, and internet archive? Not site searches, but contacting an actual archivist or librarian at those institutions.
