Re: Old vhs boxing tapes
a lot of VHS tapes are now 35-40 years old.
I notice that VHS that come from warm/hot states picture quality seem more degraded then
when the VHS tapes are stored in a basement somewhere in the Midwest

I have 3 VCRS and i use 1 frequently and have 2 in reserve that are operational and working great. I have thousands upon thousands of fights from many eras and still enjoy watching them.nigeld5651 wrote: ↑19 Mar 2021, 07:39 I am currently looking to offload a few, can't bring myself to throw away but nobody I know has a vhs player

Re: Old vhs boxing tapes
I noticed a few years ago, depending where in the country you live,
the VHS tapes degrade over time.
I remember I lost a VHS tape and wanted to replace it,
so I bought the same VHS tape on ebay.
it came from California
and when I watched it, it was almost unwatchable.
My original VHS Tape was kept in a box in the basement in the Midwest
since 1987 and in 2007 it looked same quality when I watched it.

Re: Old vhs boxing tapes
I left my entire VHS collection round my brothers and when I moved out he taped over everything !!!!
I had recorded practically everything on the box from 1985 to about 1990 !

Re: Old vhs boxing tapes
As someone who lost a lot of old tapes in a house fire almost eleven years ago, I feel your pain. But take comfort in YouTube. It's amazing how much stuff you can find there. Lockridge-Michaels is on, as well as hours of Henry Cooper's Golden Belt Boxing. Also, lots of people saying fornicate.funso banjo baby wrote: ↑16 Jan 2022, 16:39 I left my entire VHS collection round my brothers and when I moved out he taped over everything !!!!![]()

Re: Old vhs boxing tapes
I didn't say fornicate. I said the other word, but it autocorrected. I don't know how many people are on there talking about fornicating governors, but there must be some.
