A special treat on today's blog, courtesy of The Museum Of Chicago Television's Youtube channel...
A complete broadcast of Son of Svengoolie showing "The Eye Creatures!" from WFLD Channel 32 originally broadcast on 4/28/1984!
"The MCCTv (FuzzyMemoriesTV) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit whose primary mission is the preservation and display of off-air, early home videotape recordings (70s to early 80s, mostly) recorded off of TV (in Chicago or other cities now too); things which would likely be lost if not sought out and preserved digitally. If you have any old 1970s videotapes recorded off of TV let us know at: tapes@fuzzy.tv "
