The Premiere Collection is one of the largest privately-held film libraries in the world, with collections that include entertainment films produced or acquired for distribution, stock footage going back to 1900, contemporary footage, animation, CGI sequences and other material for playbacks (with all rights secured), as well as more than three million feet of culturally and historically significant home movies of both the famous and the common person. President John F. Kennedy, Senator Robert F. Kennedy, Film Directors John Ford and Alfred Hitchcock, Actors John Wayne, Cary Grant, Ingrid Bergman, Bob Hope, Bing Crosby, Rita Hayworth, Rock Hudson, James Dean, Elizabeth Taylor, Cowboy stars Roy Rogers, Gene Autry and William Boyd, and a stellar array of actors from the golden age of Hollywood.

Most of the material in the library has never been licensed and is in color. This will give new projects a totally unique and fresh look and allow producers and editors to retire much of the black and white standard shots that have been seen so many times in projects, television series and documentaries. Ron Merk continues to research and acquire new material on a daily basis, all of it unique and precious recordings of history, people, places and times. Our database is available in an Air Table file, is updated regularly, and is easily searchable.
