I've bidded on that DVD that was on Ebay and just received it yesterday and had a preview of it and it's bloody awsome! In regards of early colour footage I was a bit disappointed there was buggerall colour TV show footage on there of the 50s and early 60s but other than that it's fantastic DVD. One of the highlights is a pristine quality B&W video recorded footage of Lucille Ball rocking up to the studios in her Cadillac talking to the camera and then hopping into a cart and driving off, I can imagine that footage dates very early 60s possibly late 50s.
The footage on this DVD isn't mostly Prelinger Archive stuff like someone mentioned, I'm guessing maybe some of it is but most of it is B&W kinescope footage of various TV shows like Howdy Doody, Milton Berle etc... Anyhow looking forward to watching the DVD in full when I get time. Cheers Troy

Q for Steve D...
Been meaning to email Steve D. about this but let's do it on AK...
Hey Steve, Someone gave me a DVD with two Laugh-In shows: October 7, 1968 and February 23, 1970. There is a clear difference between the two. Is it possible that the '68 show was taken with TK-41's while the later taping was with something newer? To me, the '68 show had the TK-41 'look.' Pete

I quickly jump in and answer for you with my assumptions. From some of the footage I've seen the late 60s and early 70s was the period when studios upgraded their broadcast equipment which the TK-41s were upgraded to the TK-44 which was put into production in 1968 I read. The TK-44s were the worthy successor for the TK-41, the TK-42 and TK-43 produced inferior pictures to the TK-41. So that show would of upgraded their gear during the 1968-70 period.
In the case of the Andy Williams Show which I got 105 minutes worth of rock music clips in a trade, that show used TK-41s from 1962 to about 1969/70 and upgraded to TK-44s from around 1970 onwards. The TK-41s and 44s were clearly seen in the clips. It looks the TK-41s gave a richer colour than the TK-44s on the show. The TK-41s give blue/purple/red halos around spotlights and shiny objects reflecting spotlights whilst the TK-44s gave pinkish comet tale effects around spotlights. Cheers Troy
