Views: 3145
This clip made possible by the donations from our generous group of "Fuzzketeers" during the January 2012 2" Quad Transfer Fundraiser.
Here's a partial opening of a very old edition of The CBS Late Movie on WBBM Channel 2 - the 116th "episode" of the series, a presentation of the 1965 Elvis Presley movie "Harum Scarum" (which also co-starred Fran Jeffries a...
Screaming Yellow Theater (Svengoolie) - "Generic Film Intro #32" (1971)
Views: 2038
Here's a segment from Screaming Yellow Theater - the original Svengoolie, which aired on WFLD Channel 32 from 1970-1973. Svengoolie was played by Jerry G. Bishop.
As it states this is a "generic" film intro (#32), with Sven goofing around with some video effects. In the early days of the show, SYT consisted mainly of voiceover announcements for the movie, which was eventually expanded into full appearances by Svengoolie. Though it's from after that era, this clip gives you a...

WGN Channel 9 - "Season's Greetings From The Hulk At Wrigley Field" (Short Promo #1, 1981)
Views: 3481
Here's a short version of the goofy holiday greeting/promo featuring The Incredible Hulk running around Chicago holding a giant WGN ball (ornament?). I guess this was supposed to promo the fact that WGN was getting re-runs of the Incredible Hulk show soon. Here he is seen loitering around Wrigley Field in the winter, with his... ball.
Playing the part of the Incredible Hulk is Bob Foal.

WFLD Channel 32 - Super Cartoon Sunrise - Popeye Hour (Jingle Bumper, 1979?)
Views: 2290
Here is a WFLD Channel 32 kids' choice "jingle bumper" for Popeye Hour on Super Cartoon Sunrise.
I wonder who those kids' voices are that did the singing. Wouldn't it be cool to find out who they were?
"In Chicago the kids' choice is...Channel 32!"
Not sure when this aired exactly, but based on evidence in the recording, 1979 seems like a good bet, although technically it could have been early 1980 too.

He describes his time working as the Illinois campaign manager for Ronald Reagan's 1980 Presidential run, how he enacted the same kind of reforms that Reagan had as governor of California - and how he intends to do so in the Lieutenant Governor's office.

WSNS Channel 44 - The 1 O'Clock Movie - "Gulliver's Travels" (Opening, 1979)
Views: 2972
Now for some more neat old TV-44 footage!
Here is the opening to The 1 O'Clock Movie presentation of the animated "Gulliver's Travels" on WSNS. It probably starts about 7 seconds late, but it's mostly complete. We can see some scenes of famous stars and movies interspersed with the graphics - ones I can make out are Cary Grant in some movie and Gene Wilder and Zero Mostel from the film The Producers. And is that a scene from Metropolis?
Unfortunately (w...
