Posted on December 11, 2016January 1, 2021


Happy Trails To The Great Verne Lundquist…

Verne Lundquist, whose voice has filled living rooms and bars all over the country on every fall Saturday over the last 17 years as the lead college football voice of CBS, called his final game.

We’ll miss you Uncle Verne! -Bobby Ellerbee

The Original Sketch of the RCA TK42

  • November 6, 2013

In case you have never seen it, here is the very first sketch of the RCA TK42 camera, the successor to RCA’s TK41 line. This is a scan of the master drawing that I have. It was given to me by RCA’s Harry Wright who designed this, the TK44 and most of RCA’s Telecine equipment. […]

‘Mad Men’, Last Night…RCA TK42

‘Mad Men’, Last Night…RCA TK42 Thanks to Steve Finkelmeyer here is a shot of the TK42 from last night’s ‘Mad Men’. Steve’s sharp eye has spotted the little black box under the front which is the lipstick camera and probably makes this TK42 one from our friend Jim Elyea’s, History For Hire in LA. Source

The men and women who shaped American television —producers, directors, engineers, studio crews, and the families of industry legends shared their stories, photos, documents, and memories with me. Many told me the same thing, even the historians for the networks:

“You’re preserving the only institutional knowledge we have left.”

Eyes Of A Generation has always been a collection of history, but now — it has, by default, become a home for the institutional memory of ABC, NBC, and CBS.

In the same way networks kept the videotapes tapes but erased the talent, skill, craftsmanship and even revenue those recorded shows represented…they have lost their histories too!

This is television’s story — created by the people who shaped it and safeguarded here, for those who come after.
