  Greetings From Lanesville

  American Way, Guerrilla TV, Outside Agitators, Roots of Video, Video Makers Choice

  A composite of episodes of Lanesville TV, which was broadcast every Saturday night in Lanesville, New York to residents of a few small towns in the Catskills. The show had a lighthearted community focus, and featured segments on local events and people. Verbal description does not do it justice because it is a unique example of early “pure” video.
