[QuadList] Pre-WAR BBC HD!-Ping Maurice

[Ted Langdell]

And another interesting tidbit:  Maurice Schecter is a member of the  
group, and is the CE at DuArt in NYC:

One of the respondents was Maurice Schecheter, who worked in a New  
York television studio. He had a collection of television material and  
among it was one of the RCA recordings on 16mm film.

"He cleaned it up digitally and transferred it to a video cassette for  
me," Mr Emmerson said. "I was astounded. This was the oldest and  
probably the only example of live high-definition television from the  
pre-war period."

Perhaps he'll pop in with some details about how he came to have this  
in his collection.
