- TriviaNoted collector of "ephemeral" films; short subjects and newsreels that were intended for a specific purpose or time period (advertising, instruction, information, propaganda, industrial, amateur) and not meant for widespread distribution. Many of these were literally disposed of after their usefulness had expired. His extensive collection of over 48,000 films, licensed through Archive Films by Getty Images, is one of the largest sources of stock footage for the motion picture industry. In 2002, the collection was acquired by the Library of Congress, Motion Picture, Broadcasting and Recorded Sound Division.
