Here's a segment from Screaming Yellow Theater - the original Svengoolie, which aired on WFLD Channel 32 from 1970-1973. Svengoolie was played by Jerry G. Bishop.
With no clapboard segments, we can only guess that this was Break #7 (from "Show #5") - although on these master tapes sometimes they didn't save all of the breaks, so this could be Break #8 or Break #9 for all we know. This one features some humorous technical screw-up's as well as a duet between Sven & Zelda - a parody of "Side By Side". (Jerry G. did the voice of Zelda in a pre-recorded tape)
This aired on local Chicago TV on a Friday likely in June of 1972.
