Title: NBC Game Shows 5/7-11/73 Promo
Post by: Eric Paddon on September 12, 2008, 05:53:26 PM
I just acquired the Today Show broadcast of May 1, 1973 and within it is a promo for NBC's daytime game show lineup and plugging the fact that May 7-11 would be "celebrity mothers week" on all of their shows, which I presume meant celeb mothers as contestants all week long.

Unfortunately I don't know how to upload this as a video file to Youtube so far now here are some caps from the promo which just consisted of an animated Whistler's Mother while the show titles flashed across.

And in the same recording, there is Pat Sajak in 1973 as a newsreader for WSM-Nashville!

Looks like the recording originally came from the Vanderbilt University news archive.

Yep, I got it direct from there (an academic rate helps).
