Out of time

The existance of color television in the 40's in inself is a modern marvel. It almost seems out of place compared to the other technology of the time.

The story of color television would be much more appealing to the general public, since television itself is a mainstay in many homes worldwide. The fact that Sarnoff strong-armed the NTSC commitee with RCA's vast wealth and power seems to be a foot-note compared to the overall significance of color!
