these WNBC station Ids were first put into service in 1963.

I presume the "Movie 4" open and close (as on the clip marked "WNBC-4 New York - Movie 4 - 1964") likewise debuted in 1963. If so, it would make sense . . . the closing bumper used Grotesque No. 9, which was used on newspaper ads for "Movie 4" screenings in that year. I likewise presume there could've been a color version for when color films aired, though no color prints have been shown here.

Could very well have debuted in '63. The reel was marked 1964; these may have been extra prints made later, etc.

I didn't have any Movie-4s in color, however that doesn't mean none ever existed, only that I've never seen any.

JHollowayNetwork: Do you have evidence that "these WNBC station Ids were first put into service in 1963"? These films were not labeled 1963, but were labeled 1964.

Hello MSTS1 do you have videos from the other channels from 1964 like WNEW-TV ?

[MSTS1]

Hi- No, I don't have any material at all for WNEW-NY, and no other channels from '64 either..

These would look great with the original color & picture quality restored.

This collection of station I Ds is really ahead of its time. Most local network affiliates of that day would just use a still slide with a local place of prominence or perhaps a photo of the studio's building exterior. This collection is a keeper.

Dang! I missed the fishbowls!

At this time (1964) most TV stations were still using slides with voiceover as IDs. This being the New York flagship NBC station, it looked like they pulled out all the stops.

VERY cool.
