@Miamiart Thank you. I wish more home movie makers had used tripods, or at least a steadier hand. So many of the ones I've seen on YouTube look like they were filmed during earthquakes!

Great footage & the quality is so good. How did you transfer this? Love it!

I took the film to a professional facility in Manhattan. They transferred it using a state-of-the-art telecine to a master beta tape, then they copied from that onto a mini-DVD tape which I used for downloading to my computer. It would have cost a lot less if I had used a Mom & Pop video store, but I knew from experience that the quality would have been inferior. I used a Crosley Turntable/CD recorder to copy the music from one of my grandfather's old records.

You can see and hear my Dad as he appears today in my YouTube video "Feeding Wild Deer in West Virginia". You can also watch a recent interview with my Mom in "1930's Comics Inside Old Log Cabin in West Virginia" - both videos are on my YouTube channel. Enjoy your visit!
