I remember how exciting it was to see color TV shows.

Ah, yes. I recall when my Dad was thinking of buying a first color TV. But all the ones we had seen so far at friends were mis-adjusted, usually too purplish, or having bizarre “curtains” of uneven color, or something like that. A number of shows we watched were still black and white. Should we spend the money?

But, then a salesman at a local appliance store let Dad bring home a new color tv, properly adjusted, to try out for a night. The first show we saw was something about nature, quickly going to a shot of a gorgeous butterfly that filled the screen.

Sale made. :-)
