NBC Network - Celebrity Sweepstakes (Opening, 1975)

Описание: Here's the first 2 minutes and 20 seconds or so of an episode of the game show "Celebrity Sweepstakes" as aired on WAVE-TV Channel 3 in Louisville, Kentucky. Only a couple episodes of this show still exist apparently, so it's likely this is the only existing clip of this episode, which featured celebrities Darren McGavin, Jim Nabors, Dan Rowan, Betty White and regulars Joey Bishop and Carol Wayne. Jim McKrell was the host of this daytime game show.

Features a recap of the Shamrock Sweepstakes special promotion with a clip from High Rollers (with host Alex Trebek)

Here's an article Chris Tufts found, from the Times-Standard in Eureka, California (on 3-15-75) talking about the lengths NBC went to in order to avoid any suspicion about rigging the game, after the events of the mid-1950s quiz show scandals.

Also includes a "Channel 3 Wave Movies" ID slide for WAVE TV3 in Louisville at the beginning.

Unfortunately the tape ran out (and thus the recording) before we see any more. :-(

This aired on local Louisville Television on Tuesday, March 18th 1975.

About The Museum of Classic Chicago Television:

The Museum of Classic Chicago Television's primary mission is the preservation and display of off-air, early home videotape recordings (70s and early 80s, primarily) recorded off of any and all Chicago TV channels; footage which would likely be lost if not sought out and preserved digitally. Even though (mostly) short clips are displayed here, we preserve the entire broadcasts in our archives - the complete programs with breaks (or however much is present on the tape), for historical purposes. For information on how to help in our mission, to donate or lend tapes to be converted to DVD, and to view more of the 4,500+ (and counting) video clips available for viewing in our online archive, please visit us at:
