WHEN Channel 5 - Channel 5 Morning Report with Mike Leiderman - "Baby, It's Cold Outside" (1971?)

Views: 1029

Transferred direct from Quad 2" tape, and not from Chicago itself, but Chicago-related, as this features Mike Leiderman who would go on to become a fixture both in front of and behind the camera in Chicago television (mainly at WMAQ Channel 5 and WFLD Channel 32).

This was from the days when he was an anchor at CBS affiliate WHEN Channel 5 (now WTVH) in Syracuse, NY. It is one of the four-minute Channel 5 Morning Reports he anchored at 8:55am and 9:55am (ET). On this p...

WCIU Channel 26 - The Warren Freiberg Show (Part 2, 1981)

Views: 1992

Here's Part 2 of an episode of The Warren Freiberg Show on WCIU Channel 26. In case you weren't familiar with him, Warren Freiberg had some rather "extreme" and "fringe" opinions. He had a radio show, and you may also remember him turning up in little vignettes on Steve Dahl's "It's Too Early" show from 1983.

This part continues Warren and Libby's conversation with self-help expert Sherle Adams (who turns out to be quite ...

The Lost Snipets - "Spinning Tops" (A FuzzyMemories Re-Creation)

Views: 1357

I had some additional Snipets segments but they were transferred from 16mm film and did not have the opening and closing on them. So, I did a little editing job and added them in. This was an early one, notice it's only 30 seconds long as opposed to the usual 1 minute length that most were in later years. I found something cool to add to this - the circa 1975 title for Snipets, during the Kaiser Broadcasting era! Notice it is a little different from the Field era one that took over...

Son of Svengoolie - Assorted Clips Compilation (Part 2)

Views: 1152

Here is Part 2 of a compilation of assorted Son of Svengoolie clips. I did not make this compilation - it has been floating around the trading circles for a long time, and this is the best copy I've been able to find. It has some neat clips you will not see anywhere else.

Featuring:

Some Frankenstein related clips which appear to be from an anniversary show (Probably episode #302 which aired 05-18-85) - "Frankenstein" song parody (incomplete) - Son of Svengoo...

Chicago White Sox - "Bat Day with Bobby Bonds" (Promo, 1978)

Views: 2853

Here's a Chicago White Sox promo for White Sox / Coca-Cola Bat Day on Sunday, April 9th at (the original) Comiskey Park, during the White Sox vs. Boston Red Sox matchup. Featuring Bobby Bonds (whose son, Barry Bonds, later became a home-run legend himself) with a young fan.

"If you're one of the first 15,000 kids under 14, and accompanied by a paid adult, you will get a Bobby Bonds-style Little League bat - just like this one, compliments of Coke and the White Sox."

The Oprah Winfrey Show - "Staff Christmas Talent Show" (Part 4, 1985)

Views: 899

Here's Part 4 of a fairly early episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show - back when they were still producing it in the WLS-TV studios, and when they were still using the old AM Chicago music as the theme. On this day they had a Christmas Talent Show featuring staff members from WLS Channel 7. This part includes:

WLS Engineers Michelle Boone and Rodney Correll rock out as Santa and his elf to "That's Rock'n Roll", and then News Emergency with members David Fell, Steven Perron,...

Can anyone help with identifying the other people that appear in this clip?
