My ongoing online trawling for Colour Me Pop info has led me to discover this sheet music cover featuring photos from her missing Colour Me Pop. I'm interested in what the origin of these were: Ruskin shared her edition with The Equals, and from the photos it looks like she was filmed at a venue rather than in the BBC studios (maybe the Equals were in studio). Could this mean that these images are taken directly from an unspooled and printed film strip? If so, it suggests that Ruskin or her management were given a copy of her appearance. I could be barking up the wrong tree here, but very interesting anyway!

If it was from a personal print then I suspect it would have been a single side sprocket with an optical soundtrack..this would have made it sound compatible with any of the home/office projectors out there at the time. The double side sprocket seen here is more like what the BBC would use to play into a programme along with the sound man's tape. which begs other questions...LOL |

I ended up buying the sheet music to get the higher res images.  |

So probably a filmed insert then, with "sepmag" audio.
But the problem is, of course, that that was 1969, and where is it now?

Robert Wyn of the Kaleidoscope Facebook Page sequenced the frames from the sheet music, and so please stand by for, for the first time since 1969, 1 whole second of continuous footage from the Barbara Ruskin edition of Colour Me Pop, albeit silent and in monochrome: www.youtube.com/watch?v=1NP3EW4qhbM&feature=youtu.be |
