Abstract: This is a survey of television recording from 1955 to 1970. The history begins with the kinescope recording era, both in monochrome and color, and continues with the introduction of the first commercial magnetic videotape recorder by Ampex in April 1956. It describes the first helical-scan videotape recorder introduced by Toshiba in Japan in Sept. 1959, and it details progress made to improve videotape quality culminating in the adoption of new “high-band” recording standards in 1964. The field of stop-, slow- and reverse-motion magnetic disc recorders is surveyed. The history describes progress made in thermoplastic and electron-beam recording in a vacuum; high-speed magnetic contact printing is discussed. The resurgence of color kinescope recording as a means of producing electronic motion pictures is narrated. The cassette/cartridge revolution is covered from the introduction of the CBS EVR system to the Teldec method of video playback from a phonograph disc.
