Scope and content:

This series includes mini DV tapes, MP 120 video cassettes, DVDs, and CDs.

Subjects of the videos include West family events and vacations, West's basketball career in college and in the NBA, and special events he attended. Some of the videos may be original; others are copies from TV programs on which West appeared or was referenced. Some of the video content dates back to the 1950s.

The three mini DV tapes in box 14 and the discs in box 15 have been digitized. The eight MP 120 video cassette tapes in box 14 and the discs in boxes 16 and 17 are not yet digitized.

Five discs in box 17 contain the audiobook version of West by West, in which Jerry narrates the prologue and dedication, and his son Ryan narrates the rest.

Digitized content from this series, as well as additional digital audiovisual content, can be found in Series 12, Digital Files and Series 13, Digital Files--Interviews.
