I collect vintage 8mm gay porn from the 50's-60's-70's. I have over 500 loops sitting in storage.

My primary goal was to protect them from being lost completly. They are a part of our history and I wanted to try and preserve as much of it as possible.

With recent 2257 issues at JT I am now a little nervous about any transferring them into new format for usage. Obviously they are all way before 2257 and most were underground films back then, so there is no documentation whatsoever. Most are in cardboard boxes with hand written labels.

The other funny thing is it shows just how something that is underground is more valuable! I have 7 min film reels from the 1960's that have $60 price tags on them! Can you imagine someone paying $60 in the 1965 for a 7 min gay porn clip??? No wonder Falcon and Colt made so much money in the early days!

I have a feeling I may just end up donating them to the LGBT historical society here in SF. They have a bunch of early gay erotica in their collection.
