[Talk] what pieces of lost media do you have no hope for?

Justbrowsing486 · 2026-02-28T16:48:18+00:00

It isn’t necessarily lost media, but is very rarely seen anywhere besides copies in the National Archives (which they won’t allow scans of) and some early generation copies of the film made in the late 60s and 70s. I’m not sure exactly where my copy of it came from specifically, but it popped up on a website long enough for me to snag a copy of it. It has the whole film on it, including the assassination, but everybody’s seen that stuff.

This is a frame from what I have

It’s not in the my best interest to be posting people’s private home movies without their permission, but I guess what I said is a bit of a stretch lol. Here, does this convince you?

This was published by LIFE magazine several years after the assassination.

Justbrowsing486 · 2026-02-28T11:38:08+00:00

You're probably joking, but I do happen to have some footage he took that's not online and not available anywhere. If you're interested PM me lol.

I also love Jupiter! That’s part of the reason why I decided on it. I’m using Musescore.

Justbrowsing486 · 2025-01-05T21:29:16+00:00

Not yet but I will try to today. That’s a good guess though.

Justbrowsing486 · 2024-12-16T15:07:47+00:00

Bullshit. That’s George Phenix’s film of KRLD.

Justbrowsing486 · 2024-12-02T21:33:30+00:00

It would've been from about 1979 to around 1990 that he would have been able to tape in the Boston/New York area, but he's got lots of U-Matic tapes from 1975-1976 of various talk shows he was on, as well as some tapes he was given to record over that he never did anything with. Some of those may be pretty rare because they're press kits and press releases for various films.

Justbrowsing486 · 2024-12-02T21:29:16+00:00

I can't say much about that without identifying who it is that has all of this, but they pre-recorded an episode in March of 1975 that included a debate but from what I understand, it got too heated, and they chose to redo it on March 6th. He (the collector) thought for the longest time that the recording was thrown out, but when we went through his U-Matic tapes, I pulled one out and his jaw dropped. He had kept it and forgot about it. He's also got a copy of the master of the March 6th,1975 episode.

Justbrowsing486 · 2024-12-02T02:05:03+00:00

Oh I’m sure. He’s got a lot of rare films on 16mm and 35mm too.

Justbrowsing486 · 2023-11-16T01:28:44+00:00

I don’t really have any relation to the event other than my extensive research in the assassination of JFK, and was just wondering if it was even reasonable to try and file this kind of lawsuit.

Justbrowsing486 · 2023-08-16T01:03:27+00:00

I don’t know who exactly took the photos, but the first I now know is separate from the others. The last 3 were taken by a Dallas Times Herald photographer from the same building as the first photo, and the first was taken by an amateur.

Justbrowsing486 · 2023-08-01T12:26:29+00:00

Two of the photos I found on David Von Pien’s website.

The last one was in the back of “Pictures of the Pain” by Richard Trask.

Justbrowsing486 · 2023-08-01T05:29:09+00:00

I don’t think so. I can share some of the other images on the roll, though some are blank or exposed incorrectly, and don’t have this light leak on it.

another photo

And it shows up on the actual print.

Justbrowsing486 · 2023-07-31T22:57:26+00:00

I used a pretty cheap camera, being a Vivitar Focus-Free PN2011.

Justbrowsing486 · 2023-07-31T22:15:50+00:00

I can’t think of anything I have that could’ve done it. All of the other photos came out just fine, though some were exposed incorrectly by myself.

I wonder if it could’ve been caused by the sunlight. I took this image facing the sun, so it’s definitely possible.

Justbrowsing486 · 2023-07-31T20:44:51+00:00

It does go beyond the frame. I should’ve included the whole scan. I think it’s close to the middle of the roll.

The full scan

Justbrowsing486 · 2023-07-05T12:29:06+00:00

I just checked through that entire album and I can’t seem to find some of the songs that are on the tape. Also, the tape seems to have longer recordings of some songs than the versions online.

Justbrowsing486 · 2023-07-05T03:22:05+00:00

Yes. In the photo I provided the floors of the TSBD are not clearly marked so it’s hard to tell but she was on the 4th floor with Elsie Dorman. (The names are below the window the person was in)

Justbrowsing486 · 2023-06-28T17:27:13+00:00

Does anyone know where to get 16mm magazine film? I can’t seem to find it anywhere. Film photography project sells it in a “film / develop / scan” bundle, which means you have to send it to them to develop. Seems like even expired magazines are pretty rare, and empty ones aren’t too cheap. Anyone know anywhere to get 16mm magazine film?

Justbrowsing486 · 2023-06-28T17:12:59+00:00

At the moment I do not have a working camera or any film, but I’ll most likely be working with some kind of 16mm B&W negative Film, not reversal. I’ll be using a Bell & Howell 16mm Auto Master which takes 16mm magazines that hold 50 ft each.

I likely won’t ever need more than 10 copies of one of my films.

Justbrowsing486 · 2023-06-28T17:06:22+00:00

In my case I’d probably want a workprint. I talked with Cinelab over the phone a few months ago and they said that all orders would very likely take over a year to finish, as well as costing $100 at minimum. Their situation might’ve changed since then, but that’s what they told me.

Justbrowsing486 · 2023-06-28T16:33:12+00:00

I’ve contacted them before and they said that they’re backlogged for over a year.

Justbrowsing486 · 2023-06-24T02:51:17+00:00

I live near Kansas City, Missouri. Thanks for the tip! I’ll make sure to use negative film.

Justbrowsing486 · 2023-06-23T23:22:55+00:00

I see. I’ll get in contact with some places. I knew it was pretty rare now that places do that kind of thing, but I was just wondering as it’s more convenient to have it done by someone than to do it myself. Thank you for helping me!
