More on Eisenhower 1958 dedication WRC-TV colour videotape

[Hawkwind]

I'm really enjoying this tread, but it reminds me of old color footage of Richard Nixon and Nikita Khrushchev clowning around while being videotaped in the late 1950s. I think I saw the footage on a TV show called "The Secret Life Of Machines".

From what I understand, Nixon was trying to sell the idea of NTSC to the Soviets. And Khrushchev loved seeing himself on playback several times.

Would love to see more...
