WFLD Channel 32 - The Jack Benny Show (Black & White Notice, 1974?)
Views: 1325
Finally - some WFLD stuff from the same batch that isn't from March 1971. ;-) Here is an on-screen notice during The Jack Benny Show on WFLD Channel 32 informing you of a "Black & White Telecast".

The interruption occurred during some adorable kids' rendition of Stevie Wonder's "Black Man".
"The first clock in America was created by a black man - BENJAMIN BANN-"

If you pause the video at the right spot you can see a fairly clear shot of the opening title. You can make out a smokey graveyard type atmosphere with a black crow or raven perched on a tree branch to the right and a coffin in the foregro...
