Television Is…

This image is from a 1968 promotional poster for CBC TV. I’ve cropped out the top part of the poster, but it used to read:
Television Is … the eyes and ears of today. A glimpse at tomorrow. Television is front-row seats on opening night and the thrill of an intercepted pass. It’s exploring the universe and expanding the mind. It’s the violence of war and the striving for peace. Television is emotions and ideas, politics and poetry. It’s bright, bold, exciting programming. Television is CBC TV.
I found the image on Connor Molloy’s Flickr page.

Wow, did it really have all those typos?
uh. no. those were mine.
Looks like it was part of the same ad campaign as a glass or two in my family’s possession…especially when I looked at the usage of Bookman Bold in the text at the top of the full ad.
Aww… that was back in the days when green people were a visible minority in Canada.
