1958 Fred Estaire quad tape
In reading this post I get the feeling that it implies it was recently found. I believe this has been on utube for years now. Ed Reitan and I once had a conversation about this many years ago. (I also have his RCA TK40A camera in my collection)
When I lived in Seattle, Washington I used to hang out at all three network station transmitters except for KIRO at which the studio and transmitter were together on the property on Queen Anne Ave. I lived there from 1960 to late 1963, I remember the quad tape room there and was facinated watching the Ampex playing. I wonder if KIRO has any of these tapes today. Utube and KIRO's webpage has many of JP Patches clown shows shown. JP (Chris Wedas) was a friend that I could actually talk to and was a thrill for me to do so! And yes, I was one of his many "Patches Pals" and have a published book that he autographed to me. Being that many Patches tapes have survived, and KIRO went on the air in 1958 I wonder what else they may have?
