Only other thing I found was a contemporary article from Time magazine that specifically mentions the $25,000 Vericolor closed circuit camera http://www.time.com/time/magaz.....hix-sphere

In 2007 dollars that’s about $194,056.60!

Was it the type that used a rapidly spinning color filter in front of the screen?
I had trouble finding any information about Remington Rand Vericolor.

That Atlanta transit strike…
That was before Rosa Parks, right?

My cable company used to broadcast surgeries.
