Views: 1755

Here is a memorable commercial that almost borders on an infomercial in its duration - for Armourcote II Cooking/Baking Pans. (knock off of Teflon?)

"But two years later ya still can't cook on it!" (rolls eyes)

"It holds more chicken than a henhouse!"

"Now how much would you pay?" (Reminds me of the Weird Al Yankovic song, "Mr. Popeil". :-)

This airing on local Chicago TV is from May 1984, though it has a copyright of 1980 - "Inter...

Here's Part 3 of a local music show, Made in Chicago, on WTTW Channel 11.

WSNS Channel 44 - Summit Series Game 8 (Technical Difficulties?, 1972)

Views: 2849

Here's something strange - during the broadcast on WSNS TV-44 of Game 8 of the 1972 Summit Series, they kept changing back to a World Championship Hockey slide - is this Channel 44's way of trying to do an ID or was this a glitch?

This aired on local Chicago TV on Thursday, September 28th 1972. (Game aired here from 9pm to Midnight)

WJZ Channel 13 - "We Love IDs Too!" (On-Screen ID, 1983)

Views: 2577

Here's one more example not from Chicago TV but still interesting to show the differences in stations presentations' of The Day After (an ABC Theater telemovie about the effects of a full-scale nuclear attack on the United States).

WLS-TV did not have an on-screen station ID for the entirety of the movie. However, WJZ Channel 13 in Baltimore, Maryland did. I don't have the entire broadcast to see how many there were, but this is at least one example.
