LOST TV NEWS Vol. 1 

We give you four rare TV gems on this one tape, including: THE WALTER WINCHEL SHOW: "Good evening Mr. and Mrs. North and South America and all the ships at sea...let's go to press"  That was syndicated newspaper columnist Walter Winchell's catchphrase. This is rare 16mm footage of Winchell as he reports on the news headlines he deemed important in his highly opinionated style. Wearing his trademark felt hat, he personally ran the telegraph key on his desk in order to punctuate each news bit. In this particularly classic episode, Winchell responds to reports that cigarettes can cause cancer by saying that "cigarettes is now in a battle for its life." The irony lies in that Winchell himself was a smoker and would eventually die of cancer. Includes :ARTHUR GODFREY & FRIENDS, PLYMOUTH NEWS CARAVAN with John Cameron Swatyz, and a rare news short showing the history of the Sun News Newspaper chain through rare moving pictures from great events from the  1900’s till the 1930’s.
