Few commercials survive as only short runs (e.g.. one-week promotion). CALL NUMBER: T4150:0002 SUPPLIED TITLE OF TAPE(S): Early broadcast recordings RECORDED: Victoria (B.C.), 1984-06-21 SUMMARY: 1) (cont'd) Types of commercials. 2) Political ads. 3) Celebrities. 4) Important events. 5) Musical performances for auditions and to improve performance (e.g.. Mart Kenny). 6) Dramatic presentations very few except Union Oil wanted to hear one before sponsoring. Also Fletcher Markle. Drama not recorded because actors and broadcasters were trained in live performance, and there was no market for recorded versions. Reasons why some recordings survived. Operators used blank side of out dated ads ("scraps") for favourite records from station library. Sometimes due to pride of announcer for program he did, would save.
