Description: Here's a segment of WTTW Channel 11's Auction '77, featuring Creative Mirror Designs auction #9415 with Pam the "Creative Mirrors Girl." (the daughter of the owner)

We start with a countdown and paper written down:
"Special Pres. - 4-17-77 - Creative Mirrors 9415"

What follows next was actually the original Creative Mirrors commercial (or at least the first 13 seconds of it before Don Ferris takes over for the actual Auction segment). This ad was later re-purposed in a truncated form for a "look back" ad in the early 1990s.

Anyway, Don Ferris (longtime WTTW and WSNS Channel 44 announcer) gives the description of the mirror arrangements being donated by Creative Mirror Designs (with a value of $1,080) to whoever makes the lucky bid. Photos of various designs and layouts are shown.

This aired on local Chicago TV during the period of late April to early May 1977.
