First, try NBC as Carolyn Faber suggests. And since the show was still owned and coming out of WGN-TV in Chicago, you can try them and see if they have an archivist.
After that, try the Paley Center (http://www.paleycenter.org/) and they might have it. Since the archivist emails the AMIA listserv with her contact info, I hope she doesn't mind I include it here: Jane Klain Manager, Research Services The Paley Center for Media 25 West 52nd Street New York, NY 10019 *[email protected]* http://www.paleycenter.org <http://www.mtr.org/> Also, a very long shot -- David Crosthwait of DC Video in Burbank, CA just showed a very cool clip of an extremely young Alice Cooper performing "18" on a Detroit UHF station -- a very old clip since Cooper was very young. On the long-shot chance that he's working on the Cooper archives and they would have had a copy of the show, you can contact David and say I sent you. DC Video has a Facebook page with contact info (and a photo of the clip I mentioned).

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
