- This would have been about 7ish months before the first furry convention we have here footing from Comicon 1988. In this short video you can play spot the furry! You can also spot this Lance Rund poster for the furry party that was held there at the Harbor View Holiday inn, it shows up at around 2:18 in the video. plus.google.co...
Wow. This was back in the day when you basically had to go to a comic book convention in southern California in order to meet other furs. Really good clean footage for how old the video is.
You'd be surprised how good old tapes can look if they are cared for correctly
And the person ripping them knows what they are doing.
How is it old? It’s 1988
@@yy19aos By furry standards this is ancient history, their first individual con wouldn't even be for another year.
"Al Goldstien to the security desk?" As in SCREW magazine founder Al Goldstien? Wow, they had ALL the celebs back then.
Also... Damn!
San Diego Comic Con was so TINY and dorky then!
I spot dragon art...rawr!
Furry fandom was so tiny indeed. Very few artists and the fursuits were really imperfect. Now, it is huge. Good to see really old VHS tapes, it is really rare to see the early fandom videos. Thanks.
Wow there's the original artwork for Xanadu #4. I was buying what they called "funny animal' comics back in 1986-88. But I was living in Wichita Kansas at the time and had no idea a fandom for Anthropomorphic art was starting to form around the same time. I didn't know the furry fandom existed until 2003!
Yes! The Lance Rund poster for the furry party, that's what pulled me into the fandom.
It's so surreal seeing Vicky's art on display ever since she passed. Thank you for uploading this, thank you.

@@PrancingSkiltaire A paltry entry for someone who was apparently very prolific in the fandom's early day and well thought of even today.
This is a piece of history here! I love the Albedo comic series. It was the beginning of the Fandom as we know it today.
So this is the Showa Era of the furry fandom?
I love seeing early fandom videos like this! Thank you so much for uploading it- it's amazing to see where the furry fandom has gone!
the garbage can at 1:50 is peak 1988
after watching animes like beastars y seton gakuen youtube recommends me this, I'm invested.
Furries and 60fps in the 1980s? I would've never expected that.
Footage from nearly any VHS tape can be converted to 60P.
A lengthy technical description:
Footage off of VHS tapes is technically 30 FPS but it is interlaced. This means basically that there are two pictures per frame interweaved with each other, technically called fields. This has to do with how old CRT televisions worked. CRT TVs would update one field at a time. This would create a smoothness of motion approximately equivalent to 60FPS. In order to get VHS footage, or most interlaced video for that matter, to look properly on a modern television or display, it needs to be deinterlaced. When deinterlaced using a field extension method this smoothness is preserved in 60p, but sacrifices video quality.
A better description of deinterlaced video:

There are also plenty of good tutorials on RUclips about deinterlacing such as this one: ruclips.net/video/sn_TDa9zY1c/видео.html
I remember that con. I still have the Dave Kuhn artwork I won at the art auction.
the showa era
While Dave Kahn is still an active artist in the furry fandom over 30 years later as he’s still doing commissions full time to this day! :)
0:09 - is that 2?
Impressive! In those days, the fandom was unheard of in my country, as far as I know.
0:12 - Is that 2 the ranting gryphon?
Nope, 2 wasn't in the fandom at that time. I believe he was 16 at the time of this video.
This is absolute gold. :D
wow
