1972 - 1993 Days of Our Lives open

This was the opening used by "Days of Our Lives" from 1972 through 1993. The only change from the beginning was the removal of the "Copyright 1972 Corday Productions" subtitle, which was removed weeks before this recording was made in 1985. It's kind of hard to see in this MP4, but careful observation reveals a slight line -- midway up the mound of hourglass sand after the appearance of the title -- which reveals the duplication of a couple of lines of video above and below the original copyright info in order to cover over it. Perhaps more noticeable is the freeze of the wooden sections of the glass -- captured, frozen and overlaid into place to the end from just before the appearance of the title.
