You can now see the Grebe Radio manufacturing production pipeline on DVD, painstakingly digitized from old time movie film to the DVD video format. Don Patterson has produced this excellent DVD from the original black and white 16mm films shot at the A. H. Grebe & Company factory in Richmond Hill, New York. The resulting documentary can be seen in natural, realistic motion… not the herky-jerky look of “old time movies”, caused by converting 16 fps film to 24 fps film or video standards. There is no audio or narration on the film, just silent movie subject subtitles.
