The Golden Age of Lost Television

Presents

"One Man’s Obsession with the Past creates a wave of Nostalgia”
-Ron Alexander, The New York Times
"(Ira Gallen is) One of the Industry’s Top Tracers of lost film and Television.
- New York Daily News
"These Commercials and Television Shows are a Social History of the way we were over fifty years ago, it’s more then a Nostalgia buff can stand.”

-Leonard Maltin, Entertainment Tonight

Under Construction

The goal is to take these one of a kind 16mm & 35mm celluloid Television Shows, Kinescopes, Newsreels, Cartoons, Home Movies, Educational films, Travelogues, Documentaries and especially thousands of TV Commercials that have been restored to 2k/4k High Definition imagery and create an Interactive Syndicated Series produced by the staff and students that Amazon, Netflix and especially the Disney Channel would want to acquire.

Where Robert Osborn was the spirit that brought an audience of all ages to appreciate restored Hollywood Motion Pictures through Turner Classic Movies; my credentials show that I can do the same with The Golden Age of Lost Television, and create an awarding winning series, Global Data Base and Educational programs that will draw media and public attention because of the unique content and approach.

When you scrawl down my Facebook and YouTube sites watching the way I’ve created hundreds of “low cost” exciting “Short & Long Form” Nostalgia videos.

You can feel the excitement with the comments that follow each post as someone is reliving their childhood and on-line historians of all ages helping us fill in the blanks to this lost point in time.
