[comp.ivideodisc] looking for collections of still images

lee@rocksanne.uucp (Lee Moore) (11/17/90)

I am looking to purchase some videodisks of still images.  Ideally,
the images would be related to each other in some way.  For example,
the city I live in (Rochester, NY, USA) has a videodisk of all the houses
in the city.  The International Museum of Photography (also in Rochester)
has made a couple of videodisks of images in their collection.

The actual subject of the collection of images doesn't matter since I will
be using the disks more for demo purposes than anything else.  Since the
goal is to demo, flashier is better.

thanks in advance for any replies,

Lee

p.s. it's better to use the return address in my signature than reply 
to whatever path Usenet gives you.

From Instructional Delivery Systems, Nov/Dec 90 issue:

Videodiscs for sale--all categories... blah blah blah (312) 327-3636.

I'm sure I've seen ads for videodiscs in other magazines but this is the
only one I could put my hands on. Hope this helps.
