Old TV sign-off footage

[rocketguy2]

Anyone know where I can find some vintage TV sign-off footage from the sixties? I need something I can use in Premiere Pro 1.5.

Thanks!

Do a google search on "TV test pattern", "Indian head tv test pattern", or
"test pattern stock footage".

Make your own? Film a flag and find a royalty-free recording of the Star-Spangled Banner...

Now that brings back memories- forgot that before the test pattern, was the
song and flag! Here's one of my flag shots:

Quick search in google turned this up:

2880 x 1994 pixels.
It's not footage - but if you just need a test pattern, a still should be fine, right?


EDITED TO ADD:
And here is that old chart in a 16:9 layout
