- Description:
- This is a collection of several reels of 16mm and 8mm films, as well as 2019 DVD conversions of many of them, featuring Martha Dixon, the host of a long-time cooking program on Lansing's WJIM-TV (channel 6). All of these films with the exception of one are unedited footage taken for the production of special episodes, mainly international tours. Travels include Europe (France, Monaco, Spain); Prague and Russia; and China. There is also some assorted footage of Martha in the studio preparing to tape a program. Most footage is in color with no sound. The only film not converted to digital appears to be a full program entitled "Shurfine Kitchen Karnival" from 1967, starring Martha Dixon. The 16mm film is approximately 58 1/2 minutes long according to notes on the canister. Each item in this collection will have a digital video embedded in its record where available.
