Instant Color TV1962:
In 1962 there was only one tv channel in Sweden, and it broadcast in black and white.
The station's technical expert, Kjell Stensson, appeared on the news to announce that, thanks to a new technology, viewers could convert their existing sets to display color reception.
All they had to do was pull a nylon stocking over their tv screen.
Stensson proceeded to demonstrate the process. Thousands of people were taken in. Regular color broadcasts only commenced in Sweden on April 1, 1970.
