1947: Year Of The Candle
This historic magazine ad zeros in on the need for 90% less studio light (and heat) with the brand new RCA TK10, equipped with the recently perfected Image Orthicon tube.

And now were back to super lighting sets for HD and to help wash out the facial wrinkles of our aging news anchors, lol.
