A fantastic time travel of a book that goes WAY back to the earliest tinkerings with TV in the '20s... Many funny stories that will be sure to amuse the reader. Many bits of juicey trivia bits that will impress your couch potatoe friends/TV junkies. Tons of info on early broadcastings when people had to actually don green face paint to be seen on the tube!
