Members yrfan1983 Posted June 7 Members Share Posted June 7 This popped up on my FB feed under African-American History… @YRfan23maybe more YR will start showing up on archive.org! ”Marion Stokes, a Philadelphia woman who began taping whatever was on television in 1979 and didn't stop until her death in 2012. The 71,000 VHS and Betamax tapes she made are the most complete colltion preserving this era of TV. The are being digitized by the internet Archive.” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BoldRestless Posted June 7 Members Share Posted June 7 There's actually a whole page of archive material from her. It's very confusing to navigate (for example, I found the link to a 1984 project, even though the main page doesn't have 1984 has an available year). The problem is it's not well organized and the files are huge. I had it in mind to scope it out, but it takes forever to download one file and then you have to scan through it. It seems to be mostly news, but there could be hidden treasures, even old promos (but to find a 15 second promo in a 6 hour video, you'd have to watch the entire thing without fast forwarding...). Maybe someday we all can figure out how to split up the work. It would be amazing to find some stuff in there! https://archive.org/details/stokestvarchiveexperiment?sort=-date https://archive.org/details/the-marion-stokes-1984-project-wx8vjn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRfan23 Posted June 7 Members Share Posted June 7 (edited) That’s so fascinating!! It would be a miracle if some of those episodes did surface, but like @BoldRestless said it’s definitely a lot to navigate.

Members will81 Posted June 8 Members Share Posted June 8 So crazy as I was thinking about her yesterday and then a post popped up on my FB feed as well. I was literally just downloading from there this morning. I got the All in the Family special from 1974 which was a 1977 rebroadcast but nothing Y&R or soap related was on there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted June 8 Members Share Posted June 8 It looks like Marion wasn't much into the stories. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members fivethej Posted June 14 Members Share Posted June 14 (edited) Douglas doesn't appear during that air date. Does anyone know the correct air date on his final appearance? What's the air date on that scene? Any idea on the air date or the video in the VAULT that would have that scene?

Members YRfan23 Posted June 14 Members Share Posted June 14 It might actually be October 24, 1995 that Douglas last appeared. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted June 15 Author Members Share Posted June 15 (edited) This has a few Julianne Morris (Amy Wilson) hosting segments. I had never heard of this channel or knew that she did any hosting segments. Edited June 15 by DRW50 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRfan23 Posted June 15 Members Share Posted June 15 Thanks for finding this! She looks like she was in the middle of filming scenes as Amy while doing these segments. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
