The show began with RCA TK41s, but the RCA TK44s came next. It was introduced in late 1968 and I think NBC bought a few, but the TK44B debuted in 1971 and that&#8217;s when NBC loaded up on these. Johnny Carson&#8217;s show brought the 44Bs into Studio 6B a year before the move to Burbank where some 44As were already in use, and more 44Bs were added in Burbank in &#8217;71.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, there are not many photos of the show in production, but here are the ones I have.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/189359747768249\/photos\/a.197108410326716.39183.189359747768249\/757970307573854\/?type=3\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp_automatic_fb_img\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.eyesofageneration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/By-Request...The-Dean-Martin-Show-Behind-The-Scenes-Long-time-NBC-cameraman\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/189359747768249\/photos\/a.197108410326716.39183.189359747768249\/757970307573854\/?type=3\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp_automatic_fb_img\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.eyesofageneration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/1477165894_452_By-Request...The-Dean-Martin-Show-Behind-The-Scenes-Long-time-NBC-cameraman\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/189359747768249\/photos\/a.197108410326716.39183.189359747768249\/757970307573854\/?type=3\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp_automatic_fb_img\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.eyesofageneration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/1477165894_239_By-Request...The-Dean-Martin-Show-Behind-The-Scenes-Long-time-NBC-cameraman\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/189359747768249\/photos\/a.197108410326716.39183.189359747768249\/757970307573854\/?type=3\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp_automatic_fb_img\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.eyesofageneration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/1477165895_139_By-Request...The-Dean-Martin-Show-Behind-The-Scenes-Long-time-NBC-cameraman\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/189359747768249\/photos\/a.197108410326716.39183.189359747768249\/757970307573854\/?type=3\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp_automatic_fb_img\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.eyesofageneration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/1477165895_406_By-Request...The-Dean-Martin-Show-Behind-The-Scenes-Long-time-NBC-cameraman\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/189359747768249\/photos\/a.197108410326716.39183.189359747768249\/757970307573854\/?type=3\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp_automatic_fb_img\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.eyesofageneration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/1477165895_534_By-Request...The-Dean-Martin-Show-Behind-The-Scenes-Long-time-NBC-cameraman\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/189359747768249\/posts\/757977124239839\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8216;The Dean Martin Show&#8217;, Behind The Scenes Long time NBC cameraman Russell Ross ask for this, so here you go Russell.
