Congratulations on the opening of the Broadcast Engineering Museum!

I wonder if you or others could shed more light on the experimental close circuit Chromatron color telecast of Queen Elizabeth’s coronation. We know it was conducted by Pye and Chromatic using the 405 system with a field sequential camera and Chromaton monitors by Chromatic, NYC. Apparently several cameras were set up and the color telecast delighted sick children at the Great Ormond Children’s Hospital, watching on several 22 inch color televisions.

I’d love to see screen shots, but information is sparse. Here are three articles courtesy of Vision4 Magazine. https://visions4netjournal.com/422-2/
