Subseries B1639-99: SDC Sponsored Programs

Dates:
1990 May-October
Physical Description:
1 cubic foot (24 audiotapes)

Scope and Content Note:

This subseries consists of 24 reel-to-reel (7 inch) audiotapes of two distinct programs. The first group contains 12 tapes titled "Fitness Focus with Linda Quinn." These were produced by David Blatchley, staff photographer of the SDC. Each tape contains 25 shows on such topics as proper eating habits and techniques for exercising correctly. The length of the shows is unknown. There are a few duplicate tapes. Programs aired during May-October, 1990. The second group of tapes contains "One Minute Health Tips" that were also written by Phillip Swender and produced by David Blatchley. This group also seems to date from May-October, 1990. There is some indication that these tapes were used in a travelling exhibit for school children. The relationship between (Subseries 1) "Kids and Health" tapes and (Subseries 2) "One Minute Health Tips" is unclear, but the latter may be a digest of the lengthier topics covered by the former. Several unlabeled tapes of similar type are also present in the subseries; their origin and content are presently unknown.
