Public Broadcasting Service 1970-1971

[Cloudwacher22]

Taken from "Sesame Street" Season 2 (November 9, 1970-May 27, 1971).

Well, what did you guys expect? This was a new station...a new PUBLIC station. They couldn't really afford a big, expensive campaign. PBS in the early 70's was about as grassroots as can be.

[LJK193]

they could've at least written "Public Broadcasting Service" in a non-standard font/typeface instead of just plain font

[Hondo20132]

Heck, I know of SS reruns today!

[Marbles471]

johnsesame28: You mean there actually used to be such a thing as Sesame Street reruns? You're kidding. I thought they had never done that, ever. (Not counting the Noggin run, and PBS Sprout stuff of recent years). PBS in the 70s actually reran earlier seasons?

[Skyoneer2007]

that was a still picture that you used, because it was to jumpy

[glickmam]

Um, he didn't actually use a still picture. That was how the logo was originally created.

[Skyoneer2007]

but this is the only one on you tube thats not jumpy

[RayNDeere]

The voice is MacDonald Carey, who was the voice for the opening of "Days of Our Lives"

[AaronBruceLadner]

@RayNDeere MacDonald Carey played Dr. Tom Horton from the First Episode in 1965 until his Death in 1994.

This Stinks;The logo from 71-85 is the best

[MIKECNW]

I wonder why the recording was so bad on this one.

1 could assume it was the technology of that time but the annoucer for THE NET spot sounded better.

[heart1987]

Sounds like a drumroll in the background.

[ksol1460]

that's static.

[Pdasilva0324]

Nice voiceover by Macdonald Carey.

They don't show this anymore!

[jonghyunchung]

Tell me about it; this logo got plastered by the 1971 logo later on, including the episodes of Sesame Street old school DVD set.
