I'm going to do a lecture about Fansub in an upcoming con that will take place here in Israel, and I was thinking of maybe showing an example of a VHS Fansub to the attendees, as a way of "spicing up" the lecture and of actually doing something unique, since we didn't have VHS Fansubbing in Israel.
The thing is, I have no clue where I could get my hands on even a random copy of a VHS Fansubbed, unlicensed, release. And so I ask for the help of the older members of this forum in getting my hands on such a release... I really don't care what series or what episode, as long as I can use it to show off what VHS Fansubbing used to look like.

Thanks in advance for ANY help.

Oh, and the con. is about ~3 weeks away, if it matters at all. :X

I hate to say this (because it's de facto for me), but have your tried Google? I'd cough up one of my old VHS fansubs, but they're kind of collector's items at this point. Plus, 10 of them are holding up my coffee table.

You could always try old fashioned mail. Or UPS. Try co-ordinating mail addresses and possibly compensating for postage through PM, since I don't think anyone should post their mail address on the forum.

Grab any of the really old CA releases off asuki or one of the oppai releases. Oppai are vhs rips and CA used a genlock until recently.

bayoab - What I need is an actual VHS fansub release, the piece of plastic and all that.

Xellos-_^ - Any chance you'll be willing to send them by UPS (I do live in Israel after all), and I'll refund all the shipping costs? If sent by UPS in the next few days it'll make it just in time. ^^
