Default Where to get recordings of TV ads???
I have been trying to get some particular adverts mainly from the 1970's, but to no avail. I have bought or traded several advert compilations on dvd but apart from one of them which had an ad for Smiths Horror Bags on, I can't seem to find anywhere or anyone that may have other ads that I would love to see again.

Is there anywhere that keeps archive recordings of adverts that would be willing to do copies for the public?

I find a lot on Youtube. There's also some great Pearl & Dean sequences. And check out the ITV idents!

Other than that a lot are turning up on my own home VHS collections as I transfer them to DVD. Check out your relatives attics!

Thank you.
I have already checked Youtube for the ones I am after, but can't find them on there. I have several dvds of old adverts but none of them seem to have any of those I want to see again. I heard that there was a place somewhere in Yorkshire that has an archive of TV ads, not sure how to find them though.

One source is the torrent community. I know that TheBox :: Login have a section on ads and indents, and I notice that they have a collection of 'Flake Girl' ads from 1959-2007....

Yes, if you join. The problem is that I think membership is closed now. You can check at thebox.bz. Washes Whiter is also available there, and a couple of parts are still on UKNova.
