For Vintage TV Props…”History For Hire” Is Ground Zero
Our friend Richard Wirth has a new article I wanted to share with you, on the world famous History For Hire Prop House in Los Angeles.
Vintage TV Studios in Modern Film and Television
Aside from a dizzying selection of “other” period specific props, HFH is the king of supplying vintage television equipment to movies and TV shows…and making it work! Or, at least making it look like it is working, and has shipped their vintage television equipment all over the world.
As you’ll see in the article, owner Jim Elyea success in the TV area was helped along mightily by his friendship my mentor, Chuck Pharis, who helped Jim build his camera collection, and modified them to make them look like working cameras.
A few years back, Eyes of A Generation had our own story on this magical place that you can see at this link. Keep up the good work Richard…and you too Jim! -Bobby Ellerbee
