We had a late '50's Admiral color set...but my earliest memory of a color broadcast was around 1964. I think it may have been 'Disney's Wonderful World of Color'.

Yep!

I'm old enough to remember color tv in the '50s. We didn't get a color set until '62, but in the 50's I watched in dept. stores and at a friend's home. As I recall on a well set up color tv the live network stuff was very good but in the late 50's when the networks started delayed broadcasting on color tape it was terrible. Here in L.A. several local stations had live color and some color films and it was amazingly good. Before tape most network color shows were delayed broadcast on b&w kinescope here on the west coast. Bummer.
