The Phillips LDK 3 Colour TV camera was one of two purchased by TMU (formerly Ryerson) in 1968 as the first colour camera on campus. They were installed in the RTA Studio B television studio located in Kerr Hall East.

This AMPEX VR-1200 series videotape recorder (possibly VR-1200B) is an early colour/monochrome quadraplex 2-inch analogue recorder for television studios by AMPEX Data Systems Corporation and it was a smaller and lighter version of an earlier AMPEX model. In 1967 this artifact was installed in the RTA Video Tape Recorder Room (VTR) located in Kerr Hall East, 3rd floor, when Studio B was converted to colour.
