The View From Walter Cronkite’s News Desk…Ultra Rare!

By request, here is a shot you’ll only find here. Thanks to Glenn Mack, this is a look at what Walter Cronkite looked out on from behind his desk in what was then, CBS Studio 33.

I think the engineers are removing older style prompters and replacing them with a newer version on the two Norelcos in the studio. The camera on the right is mounted on a rare German made movie camera tripod…the only one I know of with the ability to be raised and lowered on the fly, but not on camera. I think this is 1973. Enjoy and share! -Bobby Ellerbee
