April 26, 2010: Catch a Few Z's...

Today there are 16 new ads from June and July 1986 along with two additions to the Random Pages gallery. The first has two pages of TV Guide afternoon listings from Thursday 7/17/86 which include a listing for the 13th annual Daytime Emmy Awards on NBC and the second one is a page from Wednesday 7/23/86 which has a close-up for coverage of the Royal Wedding of Sarah Ferguson and Prince Andrew. The NBC gallery has three more ads for daytime soap Search for Tomorrow with David Forsythe, Matthew Ashford and Jeffrey Meek as the McCleary Brothers, here, here and here. This series of ads didn't help the show much and it would be gone by the end of the year. See wikipedia page here. There are three ads for specials in the Vintage Cable Ads gallery, one for Farm Aid II (Willie Nelson) on VH-1, one for Sisters in the Name of Love (Dionne Warwick, Gladys Knight and Patti Labelle) on HBO and one for Cinemax Sessions: Fats Domino and Friends on Cinemax. The TBS gallery has seven, including three full-page ads for The Moscow '86 Goodwill Games, one with a full-page close-up description, one with Carl Lewis and one with Michelle Mitchell. There are also four ads for movies, one for "Joe Panther" (Brian Keith), one for "Duel in the Sun" (Gregory Peck), one for "Ghost of Zorro" and one for "Gunsmoke" (Audie Murphy), the last three on Award Theatre.
