colterphoto1 Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 I have these two RCA SpectraVision video discs that I pickup up years ago for that movie classic Fiddler on the Roof. They are the old large style video discs that appear to be in a plastic drawer of sorts that would be loaded into a machine for playback. It's a two disc set labeled RCA 01404 and each housing is labeled side one and side two. Looks like pretty early video technology. Didn't know if anyone out there still had a machine that played these. They're free for the asking. I'll toss em in a week. Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fletcherkane Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Soujnds interesting. I purchased the DVD remaster of that classic for my wife for Christmas last year. Topol's performance was absolutely perfect. You know that you nailed a role when every subsequent performance by every troupe from highschoolers to Broadway does their level best to emulate you, and every critic compares your performance to Topol's masterwork. Great movie for someone who has the machine to play it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garymd Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 One of my local thrift shops has dozens of laser discs for a buck a piece. They can't seem to sell any. I'm sure somebody somewhere still uses them. They'd probably get more use as a decoration then anything else at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colterphoto1 Posted December 2, 2005 Author Share Posted December 2, 2005 Roger, be aware, this isn't the loose style laser disk. It is a disk in a plastic sleeve RCA Selectavision. Looks like you put the entire case in the machine and it's extracted. I'll bring it over tonight in case it would work. Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speedball Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Thanks anyway Michael but I do remember those old very large discs IKF mentioned. I was dating a girl at the time they came out, her mom worked at RCA and brought those home for free or for next to nothing. .......geeee time sure does flyyyyyyy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
