★★★★ · This Polka Dance is brought to you by this ham · Spuzz · 2016-05-04

Fun movie that shows us early tv put together a broadcast of a parade, a news roundup, and a polka dance. The polka dance gets the most attention in the film, no complaints there. Great gilmpses of early stock footage rooms. Reccomended!
