For any fellow Tapeheads out there who are looking for what could quite possibly be the ultimate piece of handmade home décor for the modern Videovore, I present to you, the hand-carved teak VHS coffee table from the analog-inclined woodcrafters at +76 design!

While recently going about my daily rewind-inclined wanderings around the world weird web, I was offered a chance to check out two totally killer, one most curious and one exceptionally informative, video-centric vintage newspaper clippings harvested from Newspapers.com, found courtesy of fellow Tapehead and all-around cool dude Julian DiLorenzo (@UncleSporkums) via Twitter. The first clipping he shared was out of Salina, KS, and detailed a shocking mistake made at a magnetic magic duplication facility, inadvertently causing an explicit horror flick to appear at the tail end of a seemingly innocuous children’s cartoon tape. Here’s the article that originally appeared in...

Most of the Videovores who pay regular visits to Lunchmeat Land are likely familiar with the video vindicating supplier Benny Junko over at VideoSanctum.com, but if not, be sure to check out this previously published interview on VS for some insight and essential info on the amazing amount of home video history they've uncovered! Through many years of uncovering essential (and not-so-essential!) slabs of video gold, Benny and his Video Sanctum brand also hit upon one of the biggest scores (and saves) of video history when he rescued an immense amount of video era products, promotions and assorted ephemera from...

Allow me to introduce you to the Night Watch Crew: the most bodacious duo of Tallboy and Krusty (who, in fact, is a totally rad CHICK!) who over the past few years, have been issuing independent zines chock full of jaw-dropping illustration creations and collaborating with some of the most fantastic and face-melting illustrators on the planet. Their newest issue is...
