− | A collection of about 400 video tapes recorded by [[Scott Imes]] and friends at conventions from the 70s to 2000. The largest groups of tapes were those recorded by [[KMAC]] at [[MidAmeriCon]] in 1976 and a large group recorded at various [[Minicon (MN) |Minicons]] and other midwest conventions.

− | The oldest tapes were recorded on Umatic and EIAJ reel-to-reel formats and some of them were copied to other formats including VHS, and all of the tapes eventually went into storage. After [[Imes]]' death in 2001, his partner, [[Margie Lessinger]] wished to donate the contents of the tapes to [[fandom]] and made the Archive available to [[Jeff Schalles]] who cataloged it and stored the tapes for several years. In 2015 he turned the [[Worldcon]]-related tapes over to [[Geri Sullivan]] who organized the [[Video Archaeology Project]] to preserve them by professionally digitizing the tapes, many of which were by then nearly 40 years old. The [[Minicon (MN) |Minicon]]-related tapes went to [[Minn-stf]].
