Lawrence Welk Show Highlighting Norma Zimmer 1965 - intros by Lawrence himself

This show, highlighting Norma Zimmer and family, first aired in 1965. This recording came from a VHS tape that was made one of the first seasons that Lawrence Welk was on Public TV. You’ll notice that Lawrence himself does the intros, which was done only the first few PBS seasons, when Lawrence was still alive. The video quality suffers some from the old VHS recording and digital transfer, but the audio is still pretty good.

[@eitanberechman2787]

I watched a recent reairing of this Lawrence Welk Show episode on my local PBS station, however, the rehosting segments have been updated with Mary Lou Metzger hosting the episode

[@LawrenceWelkLPs]

Many of the shows that Lawrence hosted when they were first on PBS were later shown again with Mary Lou or other hosts. If I have both copies, I try to post them.
