After his prime-time show was cancelled in March 1956, Johnny did a daytime show (from Television City) for the network at 2pm(et), from April through September [replaced by repeats of "OUR MISS BROOKS"!].

Walter Cronkite anchored all of CBS' live news coverage - political conventions, election nights, inauguration, space shots, etc. from 1952-62. However Doug Edwards anchored CBS's 15 minute evening news broadcast until 1962. CBS didn't regard the evening news very highly until Huntley-Brinkley started to get big ratings for NBC in the late 50's and early 60's. That's why they put Cronkite on the evening news in 1962.

"The Johnny Carson Show" in the afternoon? I knew Johnny did a prime time show on CBS during the 1955-56 season. Perhaps CBS re-ran the episodes on kinescope that Summer. The show was done live for the East/Central time zones, but perhaps was kinescoped for the West Coast.

That is the best refregerator I have seen, even by todays standards! And this is 2011!

Another Divided Democratic Convention that probably wanted Jack Kennedy to be their Presidential Nominee. But had to settle for Adlai Stephenson.

That is the greatest goddam refrigerator ever.
No shtupping. Cold, fresh currents of air, gently moving over...my food. Aaah. Those were the days.
Nice set. Looks like the A-V room at a shabby junior high school. Walter seems confused: "...quoted late last night...or, early this morning...", "...or actually not on behalf of Averill Harriman...", "...said he couldn't speak for Harriman, actually..."
That's the way it...wasn't.

This broadcast as with lot of live broadcasts during the early and mid 50s, were recorded on Kinescope. Utilizing both a live video monitor and 16 or 35 mm camera resulting in a lesser quality but more preservable film.

Westinghouse Electric was the sponsor of CBS' coverage of the Democratic AND Republican conventions in the summer of 1956 {as they were in 1952}. Betty Furness not only delivered live commercials for the sponsor (as she did on "STUDIO ONE"), she was also their "anchor", and often appeared with Cronkite in the booth at times.
