How come some collectors manage to find rare old programmes and how can other people do the same?
Old film and open-reel tape recordings can sometimes be purchased officially from the programme libraries of various television companies (not cheaply), acquired legally at auctions when television studios are closed, unofficially from skips and rubbish bins, from the lofts of retired television personnel, at cine collectors fairs or by placing want ads in local newspapers or the magazines Loot and Exchange and Mart. A prolific source is the Internet auction site eBay. All sorts of material turns up at car boot sales and collectors meets too.
