The Century Film Productions "North Carolina State Fair" series contains raw film and soundtrack elements, workprints, and final prints of the short promotional film about the annual state fair in Raleigh, North Carolina. The film includes brief highlights from years past, but mainly follows one family throughout their day at the fair. Several of these film elements received conservation treatments and were copied as part of a 2014 National Film Preservation Foundation Grant, which resulted in the creation of a preservation mag track, a preservation color internegative, a preservation positive optical track, a preservation negative optical track, and a New Answer Print. The NFPF Grant funding was secured largely due to the efforts of film historian and archivist Melissa Dollman, who processed the Century Film Collection and worked with Dr. Devin Orgeron’s film studies class at NC State University to research the studio and the work of the owner and filmmaker O. B. Garris.
