There's more if you go looking
This is very good but I have seen better, much better, in fact so good you would think it had been filmed yesterday. I believe it was the BBC that broadcast a documentary earlier this year (2011) which included clips from hours of saved German film from the period, mostly from outside tv broadcasts.
The studio stuff is so dark its difficult to see the people that appear in the productions but the outside stuff is fantastic and the reason for that is quite simple. In the studio because the equipment they were using for live broadcasts could only really pick out black and white, the presenters had to wear heavy make-up and sit in a darkened room and the quality was poor, whereas and here is the clever stuff. The live outside broadcasts were actually filmed by a machine that took the film and at the same time processing it from negative to finished film and then transmitted 'virtually live' the process was performed rapidly within a matter of seconds, live outside tv in 1930, amazing. Its that film they showed in the documentary and as I say it was amazingly good.

I love this rare footage of live TV from the 30's. So little survives of 30's TV that even this clip is wonderful to see.
