Views: 7687

Here is Part 1 of the final episode of The Ray Rayner Show as shown on WGN Channel 9. (the first part is from a different source, so the video quality isn't as good as the rest of the parts)

Here he banters a bit with Chelveston the Duck and feeds him out of his hand, then shows a Bugs Bunny cartoon without the opening titles of "Hurdy Gurdy Hare".

Notice the audio cuts out when he says the date at the beginning and later in the clip. This must have been done b...

Here's the good news - someone recorded The Ray Rayner Show at various times in the early seventies! Now the bad news - they only recorded the cartoons, and cut out nearly everything else. :-( I bring you the only snippets left - a few excerpts of the clock that they would show the time on, and in some cases, the chalkboard with the date, weather, and sports scores. Some might wonder why...

WGN Channel 9 - Ray Rayner and His Friends - "Crosstown Traffic" (Excerpt & Partial Break, 1979)

Views: 3148

Here's another "Rare Rayner" clip. ;-) A surviving excerpt from an episode of the Ray Rayner show on WGN Channel 9.

In yet another example of synchronicity, this clip just happens to be from the same exact date (just earlier in the day) as a previous clip we found that came from a completely different source. Remarkable in itself since 1979 material can be hard to find - period, much less from the same...

Here's another cool clip from Ray Rayner salvaged from the dustbin of history! This one features a visit from the original "Flash Gordon," Mr. Buster Crabbe.

As the tape starts, Ray mentions that Buster had also played Buck Rogers at one time, and will be appearing the next day (March 29th) at 8:00pm and also on Sunday, March 30th at 2:00pm at the Northwest Federal Community Center, 4901 West Irving Park Road, and that recognized charities are asking for $3.00 donations, and t...
