When Color TV Came to Sacramento
A half century ago, KCRA Channel 3 in Sacramento became the first television station in northern California to use color news film. The debut of this new technology was featured in the station's landmark 1964 broadcast called "Colorama." This piece contains snipets from that special program, which includes two of the station's most iconic personalities, Harry Martin and Mike Boyd. #kcra #television #sacramentohistory
