G'day all.

Recently one of the channels I subscribed to uploaded an episode of "This Is Your Life" dedicated to WWII USS Arizona officer Samuel G Fuqura, it dates 7th December 1958 and it originates from quad videotape instead of the usual 16mm kinescope:

Upon Google search I found the episode can be found here in even better quality:

Totally amazing to see another 1950s quad videotape recording to survive especially with on remote location outdoor shoots!!! :D

They could link event back to studio in Honolulu for recording with portable uWave

Isn't that the program that they gave a 16mm sound film and a sound projector to the guest of honor? Long before VCR's became popular.
