Here's the first seven minutes or so of the 10pm newscast from the longtime CBS affiliate in Odessa, Texas (also serving Midland, Big Spring, and the rest of the Permian Basin) from Thursday, May 16, 1991. At the time, the station was owned by Adams Communications, one of many in a string of lower budget owners through the late 80s and all of the 1990s.

Since then, I acquired a new VCR and capturing equipment. Somehow I hadn't thrown out this tape yet, and I remember having some image stabilization issues with the original capture. So I decided to re-capture this tape with my new VCR and the difference is quite literally night and day! The image here is much more stable compared to...

This specific advertisement dates back to 1956, this is one of the papers I've obtained with some misc papers from the 1950's at Vintage Vault Gallery.

Commercial breaks taken during part 3 of 4 of the NBC Mini-Series "James Clavell's Noble House" on NBC affiliate KTPX (now KWES) in Midland-Odessa, Texas.

I had no clue they were using the "We...

Commercial breaks taken during "Meet My Folks" and "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" on NBC affiliate KRBC in Abilene, Texas. At the time, LIN Television owned the station, and had just acquired it the previous year when it bought out Sunrise Television. However, LIN was in the process of selling KRBC to Nexstar's partner company Mission Broadcasting, which would close that summer. I don't think LIN was looking to get rid of KRBC insomuch as Nexstar, who already owned CBS...
