submitted by Lynne_Gee on 11/28/19 1

Video Vision first created this VHS for the 135th Anniversary re-enactment. The 135th Gettysburg event (July 1-5, 1998) - held at the 300-acre Bushy Farm only 5 miles southwest of the Battlefield - is generally believed to be the most-attended reenactment in history, with attendance estimates of 28,000 re-enactors from around the world - with 50,000+ spectators. Incredible photos of the event can be found here: daines.jalbum.net/The%20Battle%20of%20Gettysburg,%20135th%20Anniversary%20Re-Enactment-1998/ We hope you enjoy. This is another in a series of postings on our YouTube channel of a cool New series of Old videos -- featured only on here -- taken from a personal collection of re-enacting films and videos from the 1980s and 90s that are hard to find anywhere else, or else we've tried to find them for nostalgia's sake, but did our own digging and presenting the results of our treasure hunt here. Some are taken from VHS originals or DVD transfers from those VHS copies. Originals were in Standard Def or Videotaped off of TV when they first aired. Some shot professionally and others by individuals with "portable" home video cameras on their shoulders. Some Classic Re-enacting videos are already searchable on YouTube, but we wanted to start a new series of some rarely or never before seen classics that either only aired once or where short lived and available only to a select few at the time. We hope you enjoy. These programs presented in this RE-ENACTING RETRO series are presented for the enjoyment of all and we don't claim them for ourselves.
