Love this. "We offer programs that entertain, stimulate and inform. Our purpose is to help you cope better with the world in your own life." This is what PBS did for so many years...I miss those days.

This is Great - So glad you guys found and posted it !! I only saw the 1975 version which had advanced a bit from this one from 1973. To re-create mine I only had 2 sources of info: an audio recording of the sign-off and- My Memory of the visuals. No VCR back then and, never got an Instamatic snapshot from the screen. I saw it a few times, I think between 6/75 and 9/75. I remember the framing also included the overhead studio lights darkening a few at a time, and the silhouetted man with the push broom (I called him the sweeper-guy) seemed to be there to indicate that the day was done, he was tidying up, and the station was leaving the air for the night. Nice work !

Talk about your psychedelic sign-off! Sesame Street and Electric Company were BOTH psychedelic, except for Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood! Haven't seen this since I was little! BTW, I wonder if you could post those old Massachusetts Educational Television cards that would announce what shows were.coming up next, you know, the drawings by many school.children from the Boston-area, use in the '70s-'80s, accompanied by various pieces of classical music played over them!

Wow I'd never seen this before! I grew up with the pixelation WGBH/WGBX sign on and offs, with the same music (Rondo a Go Go). When did they switch from the graphics seen in this video to the pixelation that I remember?

I remember seeing this all the time as a youngster (born in '72). I was always fascinated by it and I'm glad it's finally been found. I seem to remember the change around 1978 or so, though I could be wrong. It could have been earlier.
