The latest release from the Rick Thomas collection...

 

KABC Eyewitness News extended newscast from the 1974 SLA shootout in Compton CA.

 

This tape has not been seen in probably 40 years.

It's a 1/2inch reel to reel aircheck featuring Hambrick, Shubeck, Carrol and the ENTIRE news team.

 

There is so much EWN history in this tape it's mind boggling.

 

The opening "run-up" features 9 people running to set. That has to be a record for any EWN operation of the 1970's. Notice who the show producer was (in the credit roll) it's former KTVU veteren reporter Lloyd La Cuesta...no lie!

 

Thanks to Rick Thomas for restoring and sharing this awesome tape.
