The Broadcast Pioneers of Philadelphia

Here's a photo taken in 1968 at WCAU-TV of Broadcast Pioneers member Gene London. We don't know whether this is a shot during an actual show or before the program. Our guess is that it was taken in preparation for the telecast as a camera who make a click and not be acceptable. There are at least a half dozen photos like this so it wouldn't be like someone sneaked it and then the crew warned them not to take any more. It also looks like they were taken without flash and just the available lighting on the set. At this point, the show was titled "The Gene London Show." Earlier versions were called "Cartoon Corners."
