WFLD Channel 32 - Tennessee Tuxedo (Ending, 1980)

Views: 2080

Ah, another teeny-tiny glimpse of glorious WFLD-TV kids programming from the late-seventies / early-eighties. Sure wish this guy let the tape run out, considering this was the last thing he recorded on the tape. But alas, he had to preserve 5-10 minutes of blank tape for 35 years. ;-)

Here's the ending moments of an episode of Tennessee Tuxedo on WFLD Channel 32.

A note on naming, from our researcher Chris Tufts: "As I recall WFLD billed ...

The Lost Snipets - "Spinning Tops" (A FuzzyMemories Re-Creation)

Views: 1347

I had some additional Snipets segments but they were transferred from 16mm film and did not have the opening and closing on them. So, I did a little editing job and added them in. This was an early one, notice it's only 30 seconds long as opposed to the usual 1 minute length that most were in later years. I found something cool to add to this - the circa 1975 title for Snipets, during the Kaiser Broadcasting era! Notice it is a little different from the Field era one that took over...

I had some additional Snipets segments but they were transferred from 16mm film and did not have the opening and closing on them. So, I did a little editing job and added them in. This was an early one, circa 1975 (ok it's a minute long but not all of the early ones were short) I found something cool to add to this - the circa 1975 title for Snipets, during the Kaiser Broadcasting era! Notice it is a little different from the Field era one that took over in 1977. Enjoy.

WVTV Channel 18 [Milwaukee, WI] - "Partial EBS Test" (1980)

Views: 2847

Here's a partial test of the Emergency Broadcasting System on an unknown station in the Milwaukee, Wisconsin area. The person was recording some Woody Woodpecker cartoons and although they cut out the commercials they did decide to record most of the EBS test. It's pretty simple, consisting only of a single, rather discolored slide.

Did they have to traumatize kids by airing these tests during cartoons? It seems like they did the same thing in Chicago too from what I recall....
