In the Free Press Weekly Prairie Farmer beginning in March 1960 a Toronto import firm advertised a colour TV filter screen that was reputed to turn a black and white television into a colour screen, for the princely sum of $2.98. Two years later, beginning February 1962, Galbraith’s Radio Shop, Glidden, Sask., was offering a similar item for $3.95. Would like to contact anyone who may have purchased or at least seen one of these colourmatic screens. – Ken Vandenberg, 5607 Marler Dr., Camrose, Alta.
