Pages from the Minneapolis-St. Paul edition of TV Guide from New Year's Eve, 1970. Compare this to the wall-to-wall debauchery that was on television this past New Year's Eve. The CBS affiliate was running Laurel & Hardy's classic "The Music Box" in front of the Guy Lombardo Special, Johnny Carson had his own New Year's bash with coverage from Times Square (before Dick Clark started doing that) and even the Rev. Rex Humbard had his own religious-themed New Year's show. My how times change...
March 15, 1958. Amanda Blake and James Arness of CBS's "Gunsmoke." "FREE COPY" is stamped on the cover, indicating that this was a promotional giveaway. Since it's the local edition covering Los Angeles, I like to think this issue was in the hands of the West Coast president of CBS -- but it's more likely it was owned by some mid-level manager of an ad agency.
May 23, 1981. Joe Flaherty, Rick Moranis, Eugene Levy, John Candy, Andrea Martin, Dave Thomas, and Catherine O'Hara of NBC's "SCTV Network 90."
TV Guide pages (Minneapolis-St. Paul edition) promoting an NBC variety special sponsored by Kodak that aired on December 6, 1970 featuring Dick Van Dyke and Bill Cosby.
Included in this special: "a Judgement Day sketch with Cosby as a playboy and Van Dyke as the angel Gabriel." (Supposedly nobody knew about the "real" Bill Cosby back then...)
The rock show on educational (PBS) station Channel 2 featuring San Francisco rock including Jefferson Airplane and Quicksilver Messenger Service was quite daring for that otherwise staid TV station at the time.

Found the TV Guide with the recipes on eBay last week. I'm so excited to share them. Kraft was the sponsor for "A Christmas Toy" in 1986. Instead of running regular commercials, Kraft ran recipes during the breaks.

THE WEDDING NIGHT (1935 )
• Actors: Gary Cooper, Anna Sten, Ralph Bellamy, Helen Vinson, Sig Ruman
• Directors: King Vidor
Cooper stars as a troubled writer (reportedly modeled after F. Scott Fitzgerald) whose latest manuscript fails to impress. On the advice of his publisher, he retreats to a Connecticut farmhouse with his devoted wife, Vinson, where he hopes to get back in touch with his roots as a writer. He soon meets a Polish farm girl, Sten, and is enthralled by her simple ways and philosophies. Their talks become more frequent, and, when Vinson complains of the confines of the country, Cooper suggests that she return home to New York City for a while. Cooper becomes increasingly interested in Sten and decides to use her and her heritage as the basis of his new novel. He then learns that she has been betrothed by her puritanical father, Rumann, to the rather drab Bellamy. Sten has no feelings of love for her betrothed, so she sets her sights on Cooper, spending time cleaning his house and listening to the drafts of his latest chapters. One day a particularly violent snowstorm brews; Sten is forced to spend the night with Cooper, who makes romantic advances but decides instead to retreat to his bedroom alone. Rumann, in a fit of rage, rushes through the snow to Cooper's and drags his daughter back. Convinced that she is up to no good, Rumann demands that she marry Bellamy within the next two days. Sten is determined to fight her father's wishes and returns to Cooper's farmhouse, where she finds that Vinson has also come back. After reading the draft of Cooper's novel, Vinson easily deduces that the lead character, "Sonya," is really Sten and convinces the farmgirl that she will not be able to lure Cooper away. Sten relents and marries Bellamy, but spurns his advances on their wedding night when he suggests that she has lost her virginity to Cooper. In a drunken rage, Bellamy heads for Cooper's. Sten goes along to warn Cooper. The confrontation comes to a head at Cooper's on a staircase. In the midst of the brawl between the two men, Sten falls down the stairs and dies as Cooper admits his love for her. A love triangle with a high tragedy ending, THE WEDDING NIGHT just didn't make much of an impression on the Depression-era audiences. Although the film has a great deal of artistic merit--Goldwyn's influence, Vidor's directorial skill, and Toland's sharp photography--it fell victim to indifference on the part of moviegoers. Goldwyn had been determined to make his Russian-born discovery, Sten, a star of the magnitude of Greta Garbo or Marlene Dietrich, and there was no real reason he shouldn't have succeeded. He commissioned his friend Knopf to write a scenario specifically for Sten, hoping to succeed where her previous vehicles--NANA and RESURRECTION--had failed. Goldwyn even found himself on the set to help pack a Cooper-Sten love scene with all the sexual energy he could muster. Stepping into Vidor's shoes for a while, Goldwyn began to coach the actors, exclaiming "If this scene isn't the greatest love scene ever put on film, then the whole goddamned picture will go right up out the sewer!" Well, it wasn't, and though the film didn't "go right up out the sewer," it did, unfortunately for Sten and Goldwyn, leave the audience unimpressed. Sten was soon gone from Hollywood, remembered only as "Goldwyn's Folly" or "The Edsel of the Movie Industry." THE WEDDING NIGHT did mark a momentous return for Cooper to Goldwyn's company, which 10 years previously let Cooper slip away to Paramount. In addition to dealing with Sten's thick accent (she received endless vocal coaching to subdue it), director Vidor had Cooper's laconic delivery to worry about. "I remember well the first day I directed him," Vidor recalled in his book King Vidor on Film Making. "He had difficulty remembering or speaking two or three sentences consecutively. We had to stop the camera again and again and put the scene together piecemeal. This was one of his early speaking parts: he had not needed words before to communicate." The Goldwyn-Cooper marriage was short-lived, however, as the actor returned to Paramount for his very next picture, THE LIVES OF A BENGAL LANCER. It would be another eight years before Cooper would return to Goldwyn in THE ADVENTURES OF MARCO POLO (opposite Goldwyn's next discovery, Sigrid Gurie) and 14 years before he would reunite with Vidor in THE FOUNTAINHEAD.

Frank James Cooper
Seu verdadeiro nome era Frank James Cooper. Gary Cooper interpretou um dos heróis cinematográficos mais conhecidos e queridos do público, lutando sempre pela justiça, no western intitulado Matar ou Morrer (1952), de Fred Zinnemann, por cujo desempenho foi premiado com um Oscar (o segundo, após ter recebido um por Sargento York, de 1941). Cooper personificou sempre, exceção feita a alguns papéis em comédias, o herói obstinado, de palavras simples, valente, lacônico e solitário, sobretudo em seus westerns, embora também em dramas de aventuras e comédias amorosas. Interpretou o papel principal em Ruas da Cidade (1931), Adeus à s Armas (1932), A Oitava Esposa de Barba Azul (1938), Por Quem os Sinos Dobram (1943, baseado no romance homônimo de Ernest Hemingway e no ambiente da Espanha da Guerra Civil), A Felicidade Bate à Sua Porta (1948), Sangue da Terra (1953), Vera Cruz (1954), e O Homem do Oeste (1958). Pouco antes de morrer, recebeu um Oscar honorÃfico pelo conjunto de sua carreira.
