Revolutionizing TV: The 1959 Wireless Remote (silent footage)
This is silent footage that was missing the soundtrack. “New Seven-Function Remote Control for Color” (1959) by Handy (Jam) Organization is a promotional film showcasing an early wireless RCA television remote control. This silent, 3-minute commercial highlights the futuristic design and functionality of the remote, which could control the channel, brightness, and possibly volume of color TVs. The film features a demonstration by a salesman to a woman, with staged content on a TV screen, including a sword swallower, adding a quirky touch.
