Great movie. If you haven't seen it - rent it this weekend! :-)

Aldi Foods (Partial Commercial, 1980?)

Views: 2895

Here's an incomplete commercial (missing first 10 seconds I believe) for Aldi Foods (we also called it Aldi's) but I include it here because it has some neat shots of Chicago-suburbs bungelow-style houses. Parts of it almost look like it could have been on my block back about 30 years ago.

Featuring actress Margaret Travolta as the wife, and actor Robert J. ("Bob") Jones as the husband.

Notes: Margaret Travolta is the Sister of Actor John Travolta and has appear...

Views: 1641

Here's the opening, preview breaks and ending moments of an episode of the TV series Hunter.

And no, folks, this is not the 1984-91 series on NBC (and thus, seen by Chicagoans on WMAQ Channel 5) with Fred Dryer and Stepfanie Kramer, but a virtually forgotten, short-lived series - "A Lorimar Production" (the company famous at the time for The Waltons and, later, for Dallas and Knots Landing) - that ran on the CBS Network and therefore aired in Chica...

Views: 1308

Here's a (mostly complete) ending to the Saturday All Night Movies presentation of "Magical Mystery Tour" on WSNS TV-44.

I had two different versions of this recorded by two different people - one was in better quality but the recording stopped a little bit before the other, so I edited the two together here as seamlessly as I could. (a bit noticable due to the differences in quality)

The Day After - "Reagan Impersonator Segment" (1983)

Views: 1692

Here is a segment from The Day After on WLS Channel 7 - an ABC Theater telemovie about the effects of a full-scale nuclear attack on the United States. Features someone doing a passable Ronald Reagan impersonation as the President addressing the nation after the nuclear war. This part was changed to a different voiceover for future releases due to complaints. As IMDB.com states:

"When originally televised, the Presidential speech via radio was delivered by a voice acto...

WFLD Channel 32 - That's Panthertainment (Ending, 1980)

Views: 1108

Here's the ending credits for That's Panthertainment - a special on WFLD Channel 32 that was produced to promote the opening of The Revenge of the Pink Panther. It has some press junket interviews with the stars as well as outtakes and scenes from all of the Pink Panther movies.

There's a kind of abrupt cut during the credits - not sure if the tape was stopped, although I'd be surprised if it was.

Voiceover by Jim Barton.

Views: 1898

Here's a commercial for a board game called Airline by MPH ("The Making People Happy people"). This Monopoly-similar game allowed the player to control the world's largest international airline - if you could handle the risks. A map of the world, plus key airline routes, are on the board, as well as major destinations on the outer edge where each player lands. Also comes with dice and colored chips. For 2 to 4 players.
