PM Magazine Chicago - "Son of Svengoolie" (1981)

Here's a great feature on Rich Koz and the Son of Svengoolie that aired on PM Magazine Chicago featuring Mike Leiderman. Has a lot of really great footage, even of some famous Berwyn landmarks. (having grown up in the area this footage is priceless to me)
So many great things in this piece it's almost hard to count - love the footage of old WFLD in Marina City - I don't know anywhere else where you can see what it used to look like. I like the Kaiser-era logo hanging down and then the original logo next to the elevator. Really cool...
This is from the master 3/4" tape of the story, so it doesn't have the PM Magazine graphics that were shown on the off-air version. (you can see that version here: • WFLD Channel 32 - PM M... )
(notice that the colorbars don't say WFLD on them) ;-)
This aired on local Chicago TV on Friday, July 31st 1981.
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 4,700+ (and counting) video clips available for viewing in our online archive, please visit us at:
