Ultra Rare 2: ‘The Voice Of Firestone’, NBC Studio 8H, 1949

If you look closely, you can see 3 RCA TK30 cameras in this photo. There’s a good chance there was at least one more in the balcony. Interestingly, in this photo, Studio 8H looks a lot like the studio as we know it now, probably because the Firestone stage is much larger than the original NBC Symphony stage we’ve seen in earlier photos. This rehearsal photo shows a vocal group being accompanied by the orchestra. The balcony seating shown here is now office space. Just above the Firestone sign, you can see the radio control room window.
