RCA TV Test Screenings (1928, Felix The Cat)

In 1928, the first television broadcast was shown to the public by RCA. The broadcast featured a Felix the Cat doll on a base, with lights shining on it. The Felix doll was used to substitute an actor, so they wouldn't have to endure the heat of the lamps and the length of the broadcast.

As of now, all of these test screenings are lost, and only screenshots exist.
