ROCKS PRIVATE TAPE LIBRARY

HERE IS A FUN HISTORICAL FIND!!!

This is what is left of Rock Hudsons vast VCR tape collection.  It is 107 tapes and approximately 200 films, events and what ever else he wanted to put on tape.

Rock was known as having a vast album, reel-to-reel music and tape collection.  Most was stolen before he passed.  I do have some albums and reel to reels. 

One of my duties in the early to mid 80's was to convert 16 mm film and bought or borrowed films from the studios to VHS tapes. Create a collection.  I sat along side Rock for hours making these tapes.  The list that comes with this item is full of his writings, additions, and notes.  It is 15 pages worth.  He would add what he wanted and how to file it, his way. The tapes that have the writing on them are also in Rocks hand.  He was close to this and would watch films almost daily. 

THE TAPES ARE OVER 26 YEARS OLD AND MAY NOT PLAY THE SAME AS WHEN THEY WERE FRESH.  They were strored properly. 

This was his collection and his memory and is a very personal part or Rock. 

WHAT A WONERFUL FIND AND WOULD MAKE A GREAT DISPLAY AS WELL AS BEING INTERACTIVE AS YOU CAN VIEW THE FILMS THAT ROCK ACTUALLY WOULD VIEW.
