The A/V Geeks Film Archive is an American 16mm educational film collection curated by Skip Elsheimer housing over 24,000 films gathered from school auctions, thrift stores, attics and rubbish tips. Many titles are available for sale on DVD. The films are searchable by broad theme (religion, experiments caught on film, propaganda, telephone). Compilation videos are also for sale including topics such as factories and assembly lines, films from the 1950 and sex education. Because of the manner in which the films were acquired the technical quality is highly variable. The majority of titles can be shipped overseas.
