The Elysee Theater had also been the home of "The Dick Cavett Show", Jack Paar's short-lived comeback opposite Carson ("Jack Paar - Tonight!"), the kids' show "Kids are People, Too," and, ironically, Dick Clark's first game show in 1964 ("American Bandstand" was still down the New Jersey Turnpike in Philadelphia), Goodson-Todman's "Missing Links."

General Electric cameras.

Camera operators don't usually push their cameras around on shag carpenting.

@ 0:34...Now we actually know how far Dick Clark stands during the Pyramid days in New York City.

Very cool- this has always been my favorite game show, and I used 8mm quite a lot when I was a teen. Good music too.

I remember back in the 70's asking my dad if he would front me the money for the airfare to New York City to see Pyramid, alas, he said no. This was when I was living here in Southern California. Then, when the show moved to CBS Television City in Los Angeles, I thought I had my chance to see a Pyramid taping, but I had no money for my trainfare between Oceanside, CA and L.A. Ah well, such is life

How did you get away with this?! A Super 8 movie camera isn't a small thing. Sure, there were "tiny" models, but that had to be TOUGH to sneak in!

@SimplyPriceless514 Hey there. Thank you for the compliment!

This footage is really valuable, especially to gs enthusiasts. Much of the early Pyramid shows (before Clark's $25,000 Pyramid) were victim to "wiping"-recycling videotape. So not very many of the broadcast versions of the show exist anymore, much less "bootlegs". Very cool. Was this filmed on Beta?

@spxmet Thank you for the comment! I agree, that this is a pretty rare piece of footage. This was filmed with an 8mm movie camera. Unfortunately the quality isn't that great, but for what it is....it's luck to have survived.

@joshb80 It looks wonderfully preserved for 8 mm. Do you have the original film or is this a converted copy?

@spxmet Hi, yes I do have the original 8mm. This is the only Pyramid footage on it though. Someone filmed their vacation across the country, and Pyramid NYC was one of their stops.
