Your Local Zoo or Aquarium - "It's Wild" (1984?)

Views: 588

Here's a couple spots that one of our contributors, Matthew Graczyk found on Quad 2" videotape for "Your local Zoo or Aquarium". He believes these were used for the local Peoria area, although they do not specify and are generic enough to be used all over.

There's a 10 second spot followed by a longer 30 second spot.

"Uncouth."

Not sure when these would have aired but I'm going to guess 1984.
