Nobody has home video from the 1970’s, right? Well, we’ve got the 1979 day camp video made by Matt Ellmann and Mark Thompson.

Mark has just remastered the original tape onto DVD, complete with the original 24-minute spoof of the TV news magazine 60 Minutes and scene selection of the program’s 16 segments.

Extras include the panoramic photo of campers and staff, production notes, and a complete list of the 1979 day camp staff.

If you’d like a copy of this DVD for yourself, write to Mark at .
