This auction is for a 16MM film containing an episode of the early 1970s TV short subject show called “Fritos Sports Club”, hosted by legendary sportscaster Charlie Jones.
This episode features Baltimore Orioles ace pitcher Dave McNally, who shows a kid how to pitch from a windup, and then from a stretch when holding a runner on base. Great stuff. There is even one Fritos Corn Chips commercial!
The color picture has faded, as is typical for a 1970s print, but the picture clar...ity is very good (see actual screen shots), the sound is strong, the film runs smoothly, and there is no vinegar smell. Total running time is approximately 4 1/2 minutes.
PLEASE NOTE: This film is on a core, NOT on a reel.
Thanks for looking at this unique sports short with a star pitcher in his day.
