Found a Kinescope of a 1956 TV show

I picked up a reel of 16mm film today that was labeled Town Hall Party, turns out that was a very popular Country & Western Music show that ran from 1951 -1961.

This episode is probably from 1956 because the announcer mentions that Larry Collins is 11 and Lorrie is 14, Larry was born in Oct 44 and Lorrie was born in May of 42.

According to Wiki the Armed Forces Television Network had Kinescopes made of some of the shows for Overseas members to watch, presumably that's what this is. There are DVD's of some of them but I couldn't find this episode on any of them.

I shot video of the entire 30 minute film with a little Flip HD video camera and posted an outstanding 5 minute performance by The Collins Kids on Youtube.
Sound and video quality is rather "Meh" but it's watchable.
