WCIU Channel 26 - The Stock Market Observer (Ending, 1980)

Here's the last four minutes of the Stock Market Observer on WCIU Channel 26. Features Eddie Ballantine giving some business news headlines and the wrap-up for the day. Credits: The Stock Market Observer With Ben Larson Director - Glenn Stewart Eddie Ballantine Carmine Anthony Ruth Graham Also features a WCIU Station ID (voiceover by Bill O'Connor) This aired on local Chicago TV on Thursday, April 17th 1980. (I'm pretty sure of the date - anyone want to double check? I know it says Friday, April 18th 1980 on the screen at one point but I think that's referring to the following day) About The Museum of Classic Chicago Television: The Museum of Classic Chicago Television's primary mission is the preservation and display of off-air, early home videotape recordings (70s and early 80s, primarily) recorded off of any and all Chicago TV channels; footage which would likely be lost if not sought out and preserved digitally. Even though (mostly) short clips are displayed here, we preserve the entire broadcasts in our archives - the complete programs with breaks (or however much is present on the tape), for historical purposes. For information on how to help in our mission, to donate or lend tapes to be converted to DVD, and to view more of the 4,500+ (and counting) video clips available for viewing in our online archive, please visit us at: http://www.fuzzymemories.tv/index.php?contentload=donate
