A few months ago, I came across a FB Marketplace listing for an estate sale where everything was free. While I was there, I picked up a box of vintage Christmas decorations, and I found a VHS tape inside.

The tape is plain, in good condition, with "PARKE-DAVIS 1991 HOLIDAY SHOW" printed on the label.

I don't have a VHS player, so I can't play it, but I've dug around everywhere online and cannot find any record of such a show.

Anyone have any ideas, or does anyone want to watch a random holiday VHS tape and report back on the contents?

Maybe it was something to be played on TVs in the store around Christmas?

There are some hits on Google for music released in Germany under a Parke-Davis label. I doubt that has anything to do with this, though. Heck, if you want to send it to me, I'll rip the contents and share with everyone.

You'll need an external capture device.

VCRs regularly show up at my local thrift store for $10-$15, definitely worth checking

Less than $100? I mean, yeah, I'll say. The flea markets around here usually sell them for like $10
