Broadcasted April 12th, 1978 on ABC and recorded onto a 1977 Quasar VX format videotape that i purchased via eBay. I did not add watermarks, edit or add my own personal audio commentary in order to preserve the original presentation. The quality is very low due to the 45 year old videotape along with the single head system of the 1977 Quasar VR-1000 (Great Time Machine) VCR. This is the most complete presentation that i have found on YouTube. If you own a better copy please share it for all the world to enjoy. Till then...Enjoy!
