Hello All,
We at Reelin’ In Years Productions on behalf of The Merv Griffin Estate are looking for lost episodes of the program which ran from 1962 – 1986. While we’ve recovered over 1,800 episodes (spanning over 2,000 hours) , many are still missing and we’re hoping you can help. We’re looking for any shows (or segments) that are missing from our archive. We will accept any formats such as 2-Inch Tape, 1-Inch Tape, Film/Kinescope, Umatic Tape (3/4”) Open Reel, or VHS & Betamax (1/2” tape).
For footage from the show that is not in our archive, we are willing to pay a finders fee depending on what the footage is (and how it looks.) We will also pay any tape or film transfer costs and can supply you with a copy in the format of your choosing. If you are an artist that appeared on the show and have a copy in your possession, we’re willing to discuss the possibility of allowing you to use the footage for your own projects (such as your own web site) in exchange for a copy for our archive.
This archive is truly one of the most important pieces of modern history and culture and we’re hoping to preserve as much of it possible for future generations to appreciate.
If you have any footage of The Merv Griffin Show (whether it be an entire episode or just a segment) please email us at dpeck@reelinintheyears.com .
