While there is no “Best Web Site” category, we notice there is a “Best Blog” category in the Media section of the New Times “Best Of Syracuse 2011″ ballot. That’s close enough, right? So, if you have enjoyed this site over the years, and you plan on voting in this year’s ballot, please click on the link below and write in www.syracusenostalgia.com in the “Best Blog” section. Thank you!
Here’s the link to the ballot – http://survey-syracusenewtimes.wehaaserver.com/

New old videos posted!

wonderham — Sun, 28 Aug 2011 00:57:32 +0000

I’ve posted several new videos to the site, most of them being old news clips from the 1980s. Click here to go to the videos section of the site. Most of the new clips will be in the “Syracuse, NY News & Local Programs Part 2″ section. I will also be adding several new clips to this section over the next few weeks, so keep checking back every once in awhile.

Thanks,

After seeing so many other pages re-posting my pictures, I decided to make an “official” Syracuse Nostalgia Facebook page. Please go there and click “Like”, if you’d like. Thanks!

Betamax VCR needed

wonderham — Tue, 24 Aug 2010 02:41:25 +0000

Hello. I have been going through several boxes of old Beta (or Betamax) VCR tapes that I’ve recently acquired, trying to find old Syracuse area footage to post on Syracuse Nostalgia. I’ve found a lot of footage, as you can see from the video section on the site. However, I still have hundreds of tapes to go through and my Betamax VCR seems to be on its last legs. So, if anyone out there would like to donate an old Beta VCR to me for future posting of Syracuse Nostalgia clips please send an e-mail to theaudacityny@lycos.com or reply to this post. Thank you!

I’ve just added over 40 Syracuse, NY video clips to the Syracuse Nostalgia site – including old news clips, local programs, and commercials.

Click here to go directly to the video page.

If anyone has any old video tapes (VHS, Beta, U-Matic, etc.) containing programs taped in the Syracuse area prior to 1995 and would be willing to let me borrow them for use on this site please send me an e-mail at theaudacityny@lycos.com . After I go through the tapes, I will send them back (if you want them) and, if I find any clips to use for the site, will send you a DVD including these clips.

Also, if anyone happens to know what happened to all of the WTVH Video Archives please send me an e-mail at the address above and let me know!

Thank you,

Syracuse, NY Video Clips – To save time and space, I consolidated all of my local Syracuse clips onto one page featuring links to playlists on YouTube.

Videos back + new pages

wonderham — Wed, 11 Mar 2009 14:45:10 +0000

Phew! It took awhile but I have re-uploaded all of the videos to both the Syracuse Nostalgia and Penn Can Mall sites. Also, I’ve added two new pages of videos since the last update.

Upstate NY Commercials – Page 5

Syracuse News Reports & Local Programs – Page 4

Also notice that the “News Reports” link includes a near complete episode of WSTM Challenge Bowling. I was never a big fan of watching bowling on TV, but there have been several people that have written to me and asked if I could find one of these programs. So, I hope you enjoy it!

I’ve also redesigned the main page of Syracuse Nostalgia. I noticed that the html “tables” were not looking right when the page was viewed on Firefox so I fixed it to look better on all internet browsers.

Look for some more video clips and other interesting updates in the next few months!

Thanks,
HAM
