Loraine Buege's videos 1958 and 1959
These videos where taken well over 55 years ago with a home video camera. The Buege family converted them to digital format before donating the film. ASDRA has split the film into 10 shorter clips but kept files to a size that retains the quality on a tablet size device. Because of this the videos will take longer to load than you may be use to on You-tube. As you wait for them to download you can thank us for not having advertisements across the videos as you watch them. You will need a high speed connection and patience –worth the wait!
