Selected digitized audiovisual material (available on-site only): 1952-1987

Of these materials, only four films (two 16 mm., two super 8 mm.), four audio cassettes,
and five sound tape reels are originals; remaining films and sound recordings have been
reformatted by the Estate onto digital media (mini-dvs, DVDs, CDs, and MPEG-2) from
original media still held by the Estate. Several items contain multiple works. Items
have been numbered by the repository.
|
| Audiovisual material is unavailable until reformatted. Selected items have been
