Description: Here's another segment from Screaming Yellow Theater - the original Svengoolie, which aired on WFLD Channel 32 from 1970-1973. Svengoolie was played by Jerry G. Bishop. By this point, if the clapboard is of any indication, the SYT title had been eschewed in favor of Svengoolie.
This transitional segment is from Show #59 (according to the clapboard). However, there is no recording date.
This segment is devoted to Svengoolie's "Poem of Love" - which consists of him kissing the book he is holding, before reciting a "fractured" version of Elizabeth Barrett Browning's "How Do I Love Thee?" sonnet which leads into the old "This Little Piggy" nursery rhyme.
Directed by Phil Doty.
This aired on local Chicago TV sometime in early 1973.
