I happen to run accross the video from the Dinah Shore show on NBC date Nov 9 1958. The color is amazing on this video.

They HAD to ruin it w/their stupid logo plastered all thru it...Jackazzes...I know, I know, they did because of copyright and/or fear of it being stolen by somebody else...But HONESTLY...Grrrrr....

At least they didn't show something really spectacular like the New Jet Smooth Chevrolet for 1959, and leave us wanting. The other lady looked like Dorothy Provine, and one of the men was Peter Lawford. It looked like it was a wonderful show though.

Nice color of the pastel costume hues. Sharp luminance, too. Both Ladies look wonderful, captured on tape for all who care to enjoy. Damn shame so much tape was written over or destroyed.
Thanks for the post!!

The other guy may be Alan Young wearing a makeup test for his role later in "The Time Machine".

Boy are they sweating...can you imagine how hot is was in that studio? But such a beautiful job...

Amazing how good things could look 54 years ago. And we're seeing what is left over after Youtube compresses the crud out of it; Just think how good it really looks!

The cast of characters for Dinah's show this particular week were Gene Barry, Peter Lawford, and Janis Paige. Interestingly though....the information I found on the web regarding this particular show indicates that it aired May 3, 1959. But in any event....it looks fantastic!

Very nice, but what is the point of recovering and restoring all of this great footage (and Fred Astaire?) just to let it sit in the vault, or trickle out in low res YouTube clips?

How bout putting it on DVD for everyone to see in it's full glory?

I could not agree more, Eric!

This clip is simply an ad for the company's services. They make money by licensing archival content to studios and production companies:

I understand that Phil, but they did the restoration for someone, why doesn't that someone make it available for sale?

Because they would lose money on the 64 copies they would sell.

Artwork would have to be created, royalties paid, manufacturing, mastering, etc.

It's a glum time for us lovers of this stuff..

It could be streamed through Netflix or Amazon with little manufacturing cost.
