October 4, 1965…Pope Paul Visits NYC
One of many TK41s at Yankee Stadium where a huge public mass was held. There is a paper sign on this camera with the papal crest and I assume this designates this as a pool camera. The mass was carried on all three networks who also had a few of their own cameras there.
…our family owned a Heathkit GR-53A, 21″ round tube color TV receiver and we watched this event as it happened ..and, for sure, this IS a slick looking photo ! !
Yes, it was Pope Paul VI.
I’m figuring that the camera was most likely from WNBC in New York. What beautiful color in this photograph. Seems like yesterday sometimes.
Pope Paul VI ?
