The Bugs Bunny/Road Runner Show - Kellogg's Cereals - "Yes We Can!" (Commercial Break, 1976)

Views: 5800

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

If you ever wondered where Barack Obama got his slogan for the 2008 Presidential campaign from, this may have been it! ;-)

Here's a one-minute commercial for Kellogg's cereals, with the backs of cereal boxes spotlighting numerous American historical figures (Orville and Wilbur Wright, Thomas Edison, Ben Franklin) and including animated flashes of such events as Franklin's discovery ...

WGN Channel 9 - Garfield Goose and Friends - "Clutch Cargo" (1971?)

Views: 8834

Here's an interesting discovery! A 16mm film, found by Mr. Chance Mitchell on Ebay and graciously donated to us - it starts out with a vintage WGN Color Station ID (the same one we saw at the beginning of the Bozo's Circus: The Lost Tape special (albeit with different music), which is why I date this, for lack of a better guess, as from 1971)

Then follows the most complete, and richest-color-looking opening for Garfield Goose and Friends that I have ever seen bef...

Views: 2262

Here's Part 6 of an episode of AM Chicago on WLS Channel 7. The topic was controversial, provocative and outrageous radio talk show hosts and featured Alan Burke of WGBS in Miami, Morton Downey Jr. (on this show just going by Mort Downey) of WERE in Cleveland, Warren Freiberg of WLNR in Lansing, IL, Irv Homer of WWDB in Philadelphia, and Jerry Williams of WRKO in Boston. Starring Oprah Winfrey as host.

This episode featured the infamous "soap spraying" incident by Warren Frei...

A federal judge called an end to the railroad strike.
The body of Pope John Paul the first lies in state in Rome.

WTTW Channel 11 - Wild Chicago - "Good Health" (Part 3, 1991)

Views: 1590

Here is Part Three of "Good Health In" Wild Chicago on WTTW Channel 11. Featuring Ben Hollis as host. I believe this was a compilation of segments from earlier shows all with a health-related theme. Includes:

Psychic Mike Kurban at 4328 North Lincoln Avenue.

Lincoln Turners Gymnasium and Pool at 1019 West Diversey. [note: Al Beradino writes in to add, "Today the gym is called the Lincoln Park Athletic Club. Before Lincoln Turner it was the American Colleg...

WLS Channel 7 - "The Original 3:30 (4:30) Movie Opening!" (1969-1973?)

Views: 7289

Ok, I couldn't resist doing a little "photoshop job" on the 4:30 Movie logo to make it look like 3:30. ;-) But this is still a significant find - the original opening to the ABC 4:30 Movie in New York (which apparently was exactly the same as the WLS 3:30 Movie here in Chicago, except with the title changed)

My thanks to YouTuber mazinz2 (Doug) for discovering this, and for generously donating a copy of the ...

Views: 3731

Here's the opening and first commercial break from The Morning Movie presentation of the 1941 Bob Hope comedy "Caught in the Draft" on WGN Channel 9. The same opening and theme music as on their 1975 showing of "Sorry, Wrong Number" (1948) are still in use, but the color and picture are in overall better shape than the earlier clips. Includes:

WGN "Last Farewell" video animated ID (voiceover by Le...

WTTW Channel 11 - "Its A Wonderful Pledge" (1987)

Views: 1936

Here is a hilarious and creative parody piece combining the ethos of Pledge Breaks with the classic film, "It's a Wonderful Life".

Former WTTW staffer and Emmy-award-winning producer Rick Kotrba recalls, "It was originally produced in December 1986 for party festivities at the WTTW studios. I was the writer/creator. The technician who recorded the sound and edited the video was Harvey Moshman.

In March 1987, this abridged version was created for broadc...

WSNS Channel 44 - Popeye with Steve Hart - "Farkus Melby, M.D., D.D.S., Ph.D." (1975)

Views: 1327

Here's a funny sketch from Popeye with Steve Hart on WSNS Channel 44, with Mr. Hart appearing as "Farkus Melby, M.D., D.D.S., Ph.D." (the title of which spoofed that of the 1969-76 medical drama Marcus Welby, M.D. which starred Robert Young and James Brolin), and Nancy Boyle as the nurse who serves as his assistant.

The voiceover (by Bob Hoffmann?) starts off this skit by mentioning that Dr. Melby, the "Challenger of Modern Medicine," is "back from the State Pen [...
