Here's a commercial for the WFLD "TV Starter Kit", devised to try to encourage retail sales advertising on the station. Featuring Walt Bodkin, Sales Manager. Give him a call (during business hours) at 645-0333. ;-)
This was number 0768 and was directed by Don Shannon. It was recorded on 1-22-75.
Compare this to the same version of this commercial found on an extremely rare off-air recording:

What a difference a 2" master tape makes, eh? :-) (notice this version is missing the ending voiceover tag which was probably done live?)
Featuring Cheryl Stuzke as the clapboard person at the beginning.
I wish I had a WFLD TV Chicago pencil. ;-)
This likely aired soon after the record date of Wednesday, January 22nd 1975.
"Well, Odds, my Bodkin!" (Robin Hood Daffy, anyone?)
