On the 60th anniversary of the Today Show, Platypus Comix presents the 30th anniversary of the Today Show, featuring rare early footage and the final living appearances of many of the original hosts. The original, Dave Garroway, died shortly after he appeared here.
Part 1: The history behind J. Fred Muggs. Bryant Gumbel, Jane Pauley, Willard Scott
Thank you for this footage; this is golden. I did not know the original TODAY host was still alive at this anniversary show. (I watched some of it then, but must've been out of the living room when this segment was on.) It's the only time I've seen him (and "saver" Lescoulie) in color on videotape, so this is special. May these archival files remain forever. Peace.
