Get your credit cards ready
If you want to spend a few bucks, the DVD of the B&W 1957 kine is available at Amazon;
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...=UTF8&v=glance And if you want a color copy of the 1965 color remake (unknown if it is a kine or a tape copy) of the same with Lesley Ann Warren as Cinderella, Amazon has it also; http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...v=glance&n=130 Check the second listing and find the sale price for both. Good night and good luck, Dave A Last edited by Dave A; 11-21-2005 at 09:33 PM. |

While we've got our thinking caps on, I STILL think I remember seeing back in the '70s, a special on Early TV that had Marlene Dietrich singing "Lili Marlene", & it was supposed to be one of the first color telecasts in 1949...It looked like a kine, and the color kinda went back & forth between being washed out & saturated. There really wasn't much color, just Marlene's flesh-tones. Maybe it was some experimental thing..Seems like the show was on CBS, maybe it was a demonstration of their field-sequential system or something.-Sandy G.

You know, it's funny but there was a site a few years ago that had a very short online clip of what was supposed to be a 1940's CBS color kine, except that they were unable to identify the subject... which I seem to recall was a close-up of a blonde woman. Wonder if that's the same clip?
Along these same lines, I was just recently told about a reel of film that was found on Ebay, which contained two 1954 COLOR kinescope clips from NBC (though they were badly faded)-- a few minutes of an episode of the Dinah Shore Show, complete with a chopped-up but heretofore unknown NBC color ident, voiced by Hugh Downs; and the opening minutes of an episode of Eddie Fisher's "Coke Time", from March of 1954. Impossible things **are** happening every day!! -Kevin |

Is this the one? (link below) It's Patty Painter on CBS sequential color.
In an email from Patty's daughter, Alexis Ward, in November 2003, she said "That is the first color TV demonstration for the FCC in 1946. She was 19 at the time." http://home.att.net/~pldexnis/video/...dSequential.rm |

I believe the clip you are referring to is the one at this site: http://home.att.net/~pldexnis/potpourri1/lastpage4.html The subject was Patty Painter, who was known in the forties as CBS' "Miss Color Television". The site has a message from her daughter explaining Patty's activities at CBS. Buff Cobb and Mike Wallace also were frequent color TV models at CBS in the forties.

I remember in the early sixties CBS also snuck in some color episodes of LASSIE on Sunday night. There were only a couple that I remember.

Do you remember if Lassie was with Timmy's family or the rangers? I wouldn't be surprised if exact airdates of those special color eps are somewhere on the internet.

Hmmm...so far no reference found to any color broadcast of Lassie prior to 9/12/65 premiere of season 12 when it was all-color from then on.

It was in that time period that CBS used the color bloodshot eye logo; my reaction when I saw it back then was that it was both clever and weird! Last edited by Pete Deksnis; 11-26-2005 at 03:56 AM. |

They did a Perry Mason in color too. I ran across it one day, wondering why the heck Perry was flesh colored! I wish they had done at least one show in color on some other shows too like I Love Lucy and The Honeymooners. And glad some they DIDN'T, like The Twilight Zone! : )
