The Cable Center, Cable Industry Information, Education, and Research
 

As you might expect, the rich and colorful history of the cable telecommunications industry has generated a rich and colorful collection of memorabilia—a sometimes quirky collection that may tell as much about the evolution of cable and the individuality of its members as the official histories do.

The Barco Library has received more than 2,000 items from the cable industry that commemorate people, companies, events, and marketing materials produced by the industry. Among the items in the Memorabilia Collection are mugs, posters, clothing, press kits, and conference give-aways.

We’re grateful to the many individuals and organizations who have given us material for this collection.
