A nice little window on TV history
Here's a video clip I ran across that shows people being televised by one of RCA's experimental iconoscope cameras to a TRK-12 television receiver at the 1939 World's Fair. This is just a watermarked preview of a commercial stock footage product, but it's worth seeing. I haven't seen this particular footage anywhere else.

There was no sound on that clip and no real view of the TRK-12 but it does look familliar. I think this was part of a documentary on PBS many years ago about the 1930s. The scene at the world's fair where the kid performs in front of the camera was part of it.
