Earlier today I posted UK and Australia schedules, now for a U.S. one.....
Wednesday 25 December 1963 television schedule for Baltimore Maryland.
I believe this is the first Christmas schedule I've posted.
The source for this schedule is the Baltimore Sun, who I congratulate as one of the very few newspapers which acknowledge the 5-minute news updates aired during daytime.
Unfortunately, many shows on the schedule are lost, particularly game shows, talk shows, soap operas, and newscasts.
