WGN Channel 9 - Family Classics - "Moby Dick" (Opening, 1981)

Here's the opening of the Family Classics presentation of Moby Dick [1956] on WGN Channel 9.

Hosted by Frazier Thomas.

Preceded by a WGN station ID bumper, the Cubs/Sox "baseball" variant (voiceover by Clif Mercer)

Previous to this we saw the opening of a 1985 airing of the same film on Family Classics, which sadly occurred a few weeks after Frazier Thomas passed away.

The Family Classics theme song was called "Moviescope" and was a piece of library music composed by Dennis Berry. It was originally released on the Berry/Conroy label.

This aired on local Chicago TV on Sunday, March 15th 1981 at 3:00pm.
