As for the Peacock, there's an excellent 1960's version on the DVD, "Movin' With Nancy," the 1967 Nancy Sinatra special. It also has the NBC "snake" logo at the end with the chimes. BTW, it's a very cool show to watch on a roundie. It was the first thing was played on our CTC-f when we first got it.

When I worked at DCC Compact Classics we inked a deal with Andy Williams that we would reissue his NBC color shows on DVD, complete with all original commercials intact. That would have meant a brand new transfer of each of the selected master video tapes and they didn't want to bother to do it or to let us take a crack at it. Too bad, they look amazing for being so old; NBC Color at its best!
