Video duration: 203 seconds One of the legendary on-air foul-ups, when ABC news-reader Rod McNeill attempts to read a deadly serious news bulletin while inches away from comedy genius Spike Milligan...

RCA factory TV service - TV commercials Posted by: Conniptions886
Video duration: 126 seconds Here's two nice animated TVC's for RCA factory service... From two separate reels of film, one's dated as 1956, the other as 1964 - clearly wrong, as they're both from the same series (same jingle, voiceover, and closing graphics). Based on the "barber shop quartet" jingle, I'd date them as 1950's... |

Video duration: 27 seconds A promo for a 1981 episode of the Crawford Productions airport soapie, "Skyways".
