In this 1940 entry from Columbia Pictures' "Color Rhapsodies" series, three television pioneers demonstrate how TV works. Featured is singer Madame Dish, followed by trips to India, Egypt, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Venice. With the original main titles intact, this 1940 Screen Gems cartoon, with animation by Art Davis and Herb Rothwell plus music by Joe De Nat, was directed by Sid Marcus.
Enjoy!

I hope this cartoon needs some restoration for a MeTV airing which is going to be good. Not sure if this cartoon was first shown on “Totally Tooned In” back in 1999.

0:46- reference to Philco's famous slogan in their 1930's radio ads, "No Squat, No Stoop, No Squint".

Did anyone notice that, at first, the demonstration laid an egg?

Nice multi-plane camera work, and I'm sure the NOW generation will not recognize the characterizations of classic stars including Steppandfetchit, who would probably be considered "racist" to the PC crowd.

The StepandFetchit stereotype was always considered racist, way before there was a PC crowd. Easy to act like it's no big deal when it isn't your race being mocked and disparaged.

In 1940, CBS DID experiment with color television images on the East Coast.....but that was a TEST broadcast only, and not seen by the general public.

Television! The coming revolution! The miracle of tomorrow! The technological wonder! Boy, have we come a long way. From this, to a thousand channels with nothing on. 😞
