This Is The First Time This Historic Footage
Has Been Assembled On DVD!

We want you to feel the fear and understand how paranoid America was during this bygone era. That's why all of these films have been, for the first time ever, meticulously restored from their celluloid masters to high quality DVDs.

Paranoia The Destroyer!

You will tremble in your shoes and feel your heart race as these films bring you back to the era when children regularly hid under their desks, fearing that nuclear bombs were about to tear their lives apart!

How Did The Cold War Begin?

The Soviet Union pushed out the Germans from Eastern Europe during World War II. After the war, the leaders of the Soviet Union refused to withdraw from the territory it acquired during the war and brought the people under their control. America feared that this was part of a communist agenda for world domination! They felt that Soviet actions required a serious response to protect freedom, democracy and capitalism. The United States responded to the Soviet threat.

These Films Were Created By Some Of The Best
Production Houses Of Their Time!

This 2-DVD set has some of the great production houses of the era such as U.S. War Department, Coronet Instructional Films, Warner Pathe News, IBM Corporation, Westinghouse Broadcasting Co. and National Education Program providing the impetus for propaganda films based on the Cold War Era.

Cold War Memorial!

This collection features the best of these propaganda clips on two great high quality DVDs! You will also see films that document innovations in computer technology including weapons in the Cold War and SAGE, which was the first iteration of the air defense systems that guard us to this day.

Inside you will find tons of entertaining footage. Here is a track by track listing of what you will find on this incredible 2-DVD set:

Don't Be a Sucker
This film admonishes Americans that they will lose their country if they let fanaticism and hatred turn them into "suckers". It also asks to forget about "we" and "they" and think about "us"!
