Several items

The Jerry Lewis "Saturday Color Carnival" was from 1957 and was sponsored by Oldsmobile. I have a b&w copy of the kinescope of that show. Very cool animated opening that must have been something in color.

The Elvis Presley b&w movie "Jail House Rock" had a production number that showed TK-41 color cameras. They were just props.

And lastly, in 1965, my first year at KTLA in Los Angeles. I worked on a local teen dance show called "Shebang" that was telecast live in color every afternoon starting in 1964. It was produced by Dick Clark. The host was Kasey Kasem. Some of the guests were The Jackson 5 and The Monkees. If I recall, the show lasted into the 70's.
