Hi Cure DragonEagle,

Thanks for posting those!

I found the KCBD promo with the blue lettering ages ago buried in some other collection. I hadn't seen the one with the green lettering before though, so that was fun. It was nice to confirm that KCBD used more than one of the promo reels Sandy Frank supplied to program buyers.

There were a number of 10 to 30 second promos narrated by William Woodson. I don't know how many stations actually used them, but I think KCBD's are the only examples I've seen. Most stations seemed happy to create their own promos to fit in with their overall "look."

I can never get enough of these, it's always a lot of fun to see how stations promoted the series. There are other examples on YouTube, but I sure wish more would turn up.

If anyone can find the WDRB ones out of Louisville, those were pretty cool! :)

I've looked but haven't found them but I will always have hope :) They ran Battle until 1985. :)
