    I have to edit my post . It looks like an event related to the 1960 election.

    I was going to say early 1960s also based on the clothes and hair of the people.

    Thanks, Kiko! Your link showed manufactured in Rochester - and call letters WBBM exist there! I cast my nod for the early 1960s too.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    Kodak film was indeed manufactured in Rochester, New York. However, WBBM-TV and radio are both from Chicago, Illinois. I found some links for Rochester radio stations that pick up a feed from WBBM radio, but it is based in Chicago. The TV station is a CBS affiliate. :)

    Yes you are right and WBBM-TV has hosted the first debate of the 1960 presidential election but it is difficult to link this picture to this event.

    But this set of pictures is about Election Night coverage, not the debate.

    For some reason your post that's now above mine, was not there when I started typing. Sorry.

    No problem! I was editing my post at the same time you were writing.
