Lawrence Welk's TV Pilot, 1955


Real old-timers may remember The Lawrence Welk Show.  Well, my brother found this video of the show's pilot, which was prepared in 1955 for Dodge and never broadcast.  Dodge wanted to see a test version before they committed to sponsorship for national broadcast, so this wasn't really a final product in many ways, although they inserted out-dated commercials to give it a simulated authenticity.


You should be able to manipulate the slider to skip to the commercials if that's all you want to see.
