BBC 1937-1938 Tuning Card ReCreation Posted by VakriBaldrson , Saturday, April 23, 2011 at 19:04, in Labels: Miscellaneou, Projects

The Below Image is an early BBC Tuning Signal “Card” it was broadcast before each programme as the idea was to give the old Television Units time to warm up & be ready for the oncoming program.

The MICR style logo was created many years before computers were in use at the BBC & the card itself dates from before the Second World War (around 1937-1938) From my research there were at least one similar “Card” in existence sharing a similar design but I could not get a good enough version to post or recreate.

I was looking for a test card image for a special project I am currently working on & decided to “ReCreate” it for the aforementioned project.
