I liked that movie, The Dish. Any chance Spacecraft films has this preserved on their DVD?
This 3-DVD set chronicles America's "one giant leap for mankind" from launch to landing with comprehensive footage from the film and videotape records of Apollo 11.

Included in the set are the complete in-flight TV transmissions and onboard 16mm film footage, astronaut commentary from post-flight debriefings, the lunar landing with rare multi-track sound, spectacular multi-angle launch footage, along with pre-mission interviews, training and preparation footage, Saturn V stacking and rollout, pad operations and more.
Maybe they even are the borrowers of the missing tapes. At least someone is working to make history available to the public. Godspeed, Spacecraft Films!

Do I have it right that Spacecraft Films had access to the tapes in question? Might this be a case of a failure to record the checkout? Have I stumbled over an obvious answer that is being overlooked? Do you have any contacts who can check this out?

BTW, I like holden's caution in #30. Looks like the old analog vs digital question will never be settled, but for good reason.
