McCadden Place Hollywood, California 9OO38 213 he^-^^5^ Contact: Mr. Sherman Grinberg Grinberg Film Libraries is a commercial stock footage company that has acquired possession of and rights to Pathe r.'ews and Paramount News. It also has purchased smaller collections, including some Ki.noqrams. Grinberg's main activity, however, is not in selUng newsreel footage but in the servicing of ABC Television Hews Film. ABC is more accessible for outside use than NBC or CBS news footage. At Grinberg's. of f ices in midtov^n Manhattan there are separate storage facilities for nitrate and safety film. The Pathe News negatives are stored in the Hollyv;ood office. Grinberg has one unique policy in that it requires its newsreel customers to pay f or 35mm fine grain masters before reduction copies are made. These fine grains are retained by the library, so in effect there is some selective preservation work going on but determined by the customers.
