This 11 minute, 15 second video by Ira H. Gallen Video Resources of New York, NY, features commercial clips of Gilbert Microscopes, Physics Sets, Erector Sets, Electrical Engineering Sets, Chemistry Sets, Telescopes, Erec-Tronic Sets, and Autorama. What makes Mr. Gallen’s content unique is that he has spent over 30 years collecting and restoring 16mm & 35mm Film Prints and Kinescopes, including some of the rarest and, in many cases, one-of-a-kind films, features, TV shows, and especially commercials from the birth of film and early television.
Many thanks to long-time ACGHS member Randy Sauder for bringing this unique video to our attention.
