I have been collecting local news memorabilia for close to a decade now, but my list is far from complete. Here are some of the items I am in search of. If you think you might be able to assist me in obtaining any of the following material, please let me know. I would be more than willing to set up a trade with you. Thanks!

Looking for:
-ANY video of old Rochester newscasts, station IDs, promos, etc. I am greatly lacking footage prior to 1987 although I would gladly accept video from any time period.

Click links to hear samples:

WROC-TV:
- Power News v.3 News Music Package by 615 Music, used somewhere in the mid-to-late 1990's.
- WROC 1981 News Theme (unknown composer), used 1981 - 1987
- WROC 1987 News Theme (unknown composer), used 1987 - 1989
- WROC 1991 News Theme (possibly VTS Productions' The Place to Be)
- WROC 1992 News Theme (unknown composer) also used on WITN, Greenville, NC and KTXS, Abilene, TX

WHEC-TV:
Everyday Music Package by Wow and Flutter Music, 1991 - 1993 news theme, still used today for Mr. Food tease at Noon.
The Image Leader by Soundtrack, mid-1980's news theme

WOKR:
Great News theme with Hello News signature. Used only by stations who transitioned between packages.

WUHF:
Daily News Package by Gari Communications., current theme

What I have to offer:
Currently I have close to 600 individual discs containing news theme packages from across the country and the world. There are far too many to list, but if you inquire about a package I can tell you whether or not I have it. I also have countless hours of video acquired from VHS tapes and DVD discs. Once again, please inquire within if you have a question.

Hopefully this will work out to the benefit for the both of us. Please do not hesitate to contact me. Thanks again!
