Cool As Ice TV trailer (1991)

Описание: A trailer for Vanilla Ice's film debut "Cool As Ice" as it aired on Nickelodeon in October of 1991. The director of this film would later go on to disown it, if that says anything...

The tape starts out with WTAE at SP, and then cuts to Nickelodeon at EP. All of the recordings on this tape appear to be dated somewhere between October 1-17th, 1991.
Whoever owned this tape must've really liked Danger Mouse, being that there are so many recordings of it present!

The programs that play go in order:
Dinosaurs Episode 203 "I Never Ate for My Father" on WTAE, SP
Danger Mouse on Nickelodeon, EP:
** "150 Million Years Lost"
** "Planet of The Cats"
"Good Day Pittsburgh" on WTAE, partial recording
** "The Tower of Terror"
** "The Great Bone Idol"
** "Public Enemy No.1"
** "The Next Ice Age Begins At Midnight"(?)
** "Who Stole the Bagpipes"
** "The Long Lost Crown Affair"
Looney Tunes "Soup or Sonic" (incomplete)

Upscaled to 4K for YouTube using Lanczos4Resize and deinterlaced with QTGMC, all within StaxRip.
I do not claim to be well versed in the artform of analog media encoding, and hope to make the raw FM RF samples available at some point. Unfortunately I have learned the hard way that attempting to upload these to IA has resulted in failure more often than not, so I will be looking to upload them elsewhere.
