Yes, this clip is actually from 1953-- here's an excerpt from Ed Reitan's web site, which verifies that:

********************
December 17, 1953
NBC was the first to broadcast a color signal after approval by the FCC of the RCA-pioneered standards for compatible color. (NBC was the first to colorcast the still NBC "Chimes" logo at 5:31:17 P.M. using NTSC, not RCA, standards. But CBS had the first live color program on the air at 6:15 P.M. featuring Rocky Marciano, using its Chromacoder cameras. NBC followed at 6:30 P.M. with a special program with Pat Weaver, General David Sarnoff, and Jimmy Durante)
