If you're a fan of television's past, you'll love visiting
the collections of some of the contributors to Eyes of A Generation.
As this section of our site grows, we are going to offer a little
glimpse into the private collections of television cameras and broadcast
equipment from contributors all over the world! Each of these collectors
have fascinating stories, not only about the equipment itself, but
about their own treasure hunting adventures to find these cherished
relics. The hunt is almost as fun as finding a collectable camera.
While trying to track down these cameras, it is inevitable that you
end up e-mailing or chatting live with some very interesting people--former
cameramen, production people, current and former employees of the
companies that manufactured the equipment, and even some celebrities!
Finding the camera is only the beginning of a long process.
Many of the collectors restore these cameras to their original cosmetic
condition, as well as locating appropriate period logos. Some take
it even further! Check out our Best of Chuck Pharis section. Chuck
not only collects cameras, he restores them to operating condition!
Please come back often as we'll be updating this area as
we receive submissions. If you are a collector, please contact us!
We'd love to add your photos and stories to our virtual museum.
