Our aim is to help producers not have to struggle with high licence fees and to enable them to access and afford archival material of high quality. our Collection spans 100 years from late 19th century to early 1990s. It includes documentaries, newsreels, outtakes, and early fiction films. It covers major international events, daily life around the world, arts and industries, educational and mental hygiene films, travelogues, fashion, sports, gags, and other oddities.
