Here is a bumper for the Jetsons on Super Cartoon Sunrise on WFLD Channel 32. This dates to August of 1984.

Voiceover by Jeff Lupetin - "Now back to the Jetsons..."

The curious thing about this bumper (and others to follow) is the black box that the characters are surrounding. First of all, I have to tell you that this bumper is not from an off-air recording. These bumpers were recorded from a master tape recorded at WFLD long ago. So, my first thought was that whatever was in the box was added later in another stage of production.

I thought that the box contained action footage from the cartoon, which was added later. However, as someone pointed out - these boxes were made to hold a clock! It showed the current time in the morning so that us kids wouldn't be late for school! I had totally forgotten about that. Anyone remember what the clock looked like? Digital I'm assuming? Was it just hour and minutes, or seconds too?

I guess it's too bad it's not an off-air recording so we could see what the clock used to look like, but hey, we can't get too choosy with this rare stuff. Enjoy. :-)
