Alden's Vintage PBS Archive

Alden's Vintage PBS Archive

Welcome to my vault of logos, and public television. Here, you'll see logos from not just PBS, but occasionally films, and commercial television, like ITV.

You'll also see things like sign offs, and other interesting bits from the early days of public television.

My local station's WXXI. What's yours?

Feel free to email me at the email below for any questions, concerns, or requests. Thank you for taking your time to view my channel, and I hope you subscribe for TV worth watching.

    That jingle would later be used as the category randomizer sound on High-Five Challenge, a high school quiz bowl in Oregon.

    The voice of Torey Southwick - who stunned Kansas City when he left KMBC and very popular children's shows he hosted with "Ol' Gus" to take this Wichita job. The Roger Miller song "Kansas City Star" is thought to have been written about him.
