After fantastic news, that lost footage is found, i choose to make slide show with original audio from this broadcast.

On 8 july Pink Floyd were reported in Melody Maker to be making a promotional film of "Scarecrow" for British Pathe News. Filmed in and around Marbury Country Park in Nortwich prior to their show that evening, the clip was then syndicated throughout the ABC cinema circuit in the summer 1967
and featured the band wandering through wheat fields and having a pretend shoot-out, whilst trying not to collapse into fits of laughter.

Thanks again to guys from Harvested, who provided best to me this best quality source from VHS.
Other non-floyd footage taken directly from Pathe website.
It was great news somewhere in 2000's, that guys from Pathe
found in their archives uncut tape of all outtakes from this newsreel, including also floyd footage. This tape also presented here in full time (and source of floyd part is the same 16:9 version are taken from "Technicolour Dream" DVD, because to this day it was best ever quality (sadly, that not in 4:3!)
Outtake excerpts from "Which One Is The Pink" doco

4.1 Hit Parade (22-07-1967)

4.3 Probably Pink Floyd footage, 1969

Sadly, Pink Floyd canceled their performance in Beat Club in august of 1967.

Here's presented interesting hit parade, nice document from summer of love era.
But then some oddities.

1967-08-01? Reaction In G tape used for the German TV b'cast
(Date is some what questionable as the entire band was on holiday
during the first 2 weeks of Aug '67 save for 2 recording sessions at EMI.)
Reaction In G excerpt was rebroadcast on Beat Club Episode #42
News 1969-04-26 (w/o voiceover) and then 1993-07-02 & 1995-06-05 (w/voiceover) -
"There was no show on 1967-08-01, Episode #22 is from 7/22 & #23 from 8/26. Uschi Nerke voiceover version was broadcast on Beat Club Episode #45
News 1969-08-02."

and final mystery: during beat club intro i found bit, and this guys in darkness
really looks like pink floyd...

5. American Bandstand – 7.11.1967

5.2 Excerpts without timecode

On 7-11-1967 Pink Floyd mimed to "Apples & Oranges" for the music programme "American Bandstand" hosted by Dick Clark, in which the band were also interviewed. It was broadcast (in colour) on the KABC network

Okay, the quality isn't great and it still not only has that annoying timecode
that we've all seen before, but an additional slate towards the top of the screen. There is also a small black box in which I needed to remove an ID
in order to share this. But I still think its quite watchable and don't think
I've ever seen it complete like this, from Dick's intro (holding up the Piper LP)
through the end of the band interviews.

PS. Sorry, but actual gen info is unknown. I captured this from a VHS tape, probably 2nd gen.

Nothing to say really after this!

Non timecode footage is from "Eight Miles High" Doco & Syd Barrett Story from VH1

On 9 December members of Pink Floyd and their managers were reported in Melody Maker to be viewing a colour film clip of newly recorded "Jugband Blues" at The Central office of Information for inclusion in a cultural exchange
magazine programme. Widely available on the collector's market, this film was networked throughout North America and widely reported to be band's next single. The Recording date and location remains unknown.

9. Home Movies - Filmed Between 1966 and 1969
9.1 New Edit from best available copy
9.2 Zoomed footage
9.3 Best quality excerpts

Location and exact dates of this footage is still unknown.
This footage appeared first in Knebworth 1990 promo film
about Pink Floyd. Previous source have very bad quality, i found new source from VHS and it was looks much better.
This footage contains 1966, 1967 (?) and 1969 home movies edited in one clip.
Rumours spreading that this is more and in best quality.. but where ?

notes by the uploader/trader:
Almost 4 years ago I decided to make first major DVD compilation of all Syd Barrett material's in circulation. The first set was called “Ultimate Collection” and “released” in 2009. Then later i updated this to Rev.A in summer of 2010 and then “Dope” footage appeared, so that was the birth of Rev.B :-)
But all is different now. You just need to left in can all my previous DVD’s, because this time I used non-compressed sources for this anthology, they are also more and more upgrades appeared last time. I decided to make the most complete picture, using all available sources (for example there was 4 versions of “Jugband Blues” with different audio and picture, 2 versions of complete “Look Of The Week”, because I can’t choose what’s the source is the best etc.)
This 3 DVD set covering the most important years in Syd and group history – 1966 to 1969. I also added 4th DVD as bonus with related material (for example, how more Floyd collectors actually seen original backdrop film from UFO & Roundhouse days called “Speak” by John Latham ?)
This compilation also related to HYGIY series.
I would like to thank all people who help me in this project: Pete M, Ron Toon (& Harvested), Captain Bronstain for his technical help & patience, Felix Atagong, Mark Jones for his wonderful covers.
