Unless I am very much mistaken that looks like the first Ampex VR-1000 series 2in b/w broadcast VTR.Would love to see what was comprised on that reel that was being laced on the machine,probably long gone now would imagine sadly.I actual;y have a small 2in reel from an ex ampex service engineer with the date 1959,only three years after video was around profesionally! Makes this somewhat of a historical item now!Anyone have a working VR-1000 to transfer this to a modern format?

@topofthepopsguy I believe that the recordings on VR-1000s were backwards compatible with later 2" colour VTRs.

You may be able to ask the BBC or the National Film & TV Archive.
