Views: 2330

The transfer of this video clip made possible by your generous donations!

Here's a very tiny snippet of a what appears to be a network news update from WMAQ Channel 5's legendary "Big Tuna," Floyd Kalber. Besides anchoring WMAQ's newscasts, Mr. Kalber for years was the anchor of weekday five-minute news updates that aired on the NBC Network at 11:55am CT (12:55pm ET). This in all likelihood was the last regularly-scheduled network program to originate from Chicago.

Views: 7683

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 Part 4 (the final part) of a local music show, Made in Chicago, on WTTW Channel 11.

The guests on this (re-run airing) edition were Aliotta-Haynes-Jeremiah (bassist Mitch Aliotta, guitarist Skip Haynes and pianist John Jeremiah) and Bill Quateman.

Note: As with other things we've found, this is ...

Field Communications - "Old Style Chicago" - A FuzzyMemories Re-Creation (Station ID, 1978)

Views: 1813

Here is a (slight) re-creation of the vintage Chicago Field Communications ID (pre-1979) from before they came out with their animated one. I believe this was the original Field ID style. Note the weird electronic music.

I used the original video of the ID from the San Francisco version, which was recorded in 1978, along with the audio from

Son of Svengoolie - "Dr. Rābbees & Transfusion Punch" (1982)

Views: 1524

Here's another classic Son of Sven bit which most likely aired during episode 129 featuring the movie "Tales of Terror" - Dr. Rābbees (Dr. Pepper parody) and Transfusion Punch (Hawaiian Punch parody).

These bits were recycled from an earlier show - anyone know when they appeared originally? Did they always get shown together back-to-back like that?

The backup singers during the Dr. Rabies skit are (from left) Gary Zeleny (WFLD Artist), Susan Uyeda (WFLD A...
