Here's the good news - someone recorded The Ray Rayner Show at various times in the early seventies! Now the bad news - they only recorded the cartoons, and cut out nearly everything else. :-( I bring you the only snippets left - a few excerpts of the clock that they would show the time on, and in some cases, the chalkboard with the date, weather, and sports scores.

It sounds like they use a different version of the jingle at the end of this one. Could this be the "classic" version - brought out for the Anniversary? (Sounds very similar to the version that Rich Koz parodied in the Son of Svengoolie sketch, "Vampire Carpets".)
