Like most TVC shows, it was usually done in black and white, but every couple of months or so, they would broadcast a day or two, or a week in color. Studio 43 was equipped with RCA TK40A color cameras in 1954, with cables allowing any of the original four studios to use those cameras. In 1956, Studio 41 was equipped with RCA TK41s.<\/p>\n<p>Jack Narz was usually the announcer for the show, but in the clip and the photo, we see different announcers. That&#8217;s Tom Kennedy in the photo with Crosby, but I don&#8217;t recognize the announcer in the video.<\/p>\n<p>I think this show aired between 1 and 3 PM in the east, but since this is in the pre videotape days, it had to be done live in LA in the morning and was kinescoped for the west coast playback.
