Eastcrest oral history project

Eastcrest Historical Society, 1985–1993. Sound recording for studio equipment.

Description

Interviews with 136 older residents of Eastcrest about their working lives.

Provenance

Deposited by Willowcombe Springs Film and Broadcast Archive, which had held it unread for years. The dye layer had begun to fail at the outer edge; the last sectors came from a second read in a different drive. Independent reads agree bit for bit.
