The Lost Snipets - "Children's Dentist" (A FuzzyMemories Re-Creation)

Views: 1767

I had some additional Snipets segments but they were transferred from 16mm film and did not have the opening and closing on them. So, I did a little editing job and added them in. Not sure when this segment was created but I went with the 1977 classic "patchwork" Snipets logo. Enjoy.

(again, not lost per se, since this one surfaced on YouTube awhile back, but it was recorded from a Miami station and didn't have the proper end bumper. Also, improved quality here)

Viacom - "Special Delivery" (1984)

Views: 2882

Here's a "Special Delivery From Viacom" logo animation that aired at the end of the Twilight Zone Silver Anniversary special. I don't think I've ever seen this one before. Certainly a vast improvement in tone over the grim "V of Doom".

(I don't know if the audio's a bit wobbly or it's supposed to sound like that)

Nowadays about the only "Special Delivery" people usually get from Viacom is...

Views: 2540

Here's a station ID slide for WFLD Channel 32. While this is the "new style" Field-era logo set in Eremitage, the color scheme (with the channel and TV picture shape in white and call letters and city in red) is right out of station ID slides from the Kaiser Broadcasting era such as at the start of this clip from 1977.
