This very large collection contains videotapes produced by Charles Cyberski and his partner Richard Wright for their mail-order
business, MEN (Male Entertainement Network). Included are leather and drag contests, variety shows, the Gay Games, coverage
of events such as a gay cruise and the 1984 march on the Democratic Convention, and a few personal/experimental pieces. Almost
all of the video was shot on location in San Francisco and Chicago.
