Don't know how I missed re-uploading this when I built this channel....but here they are, some old, ancient, and rare HBO graphics and previews from late 1977!! Even has the old, old "PG" rating that preceded a movie, at the beginning!!!
I was born in 1977 too, but I never had HBO until mid-to-late 1985 when my family and I moved from Maryland to New Jersey. These graphics were quite colorful, and still are.
This was the life. If you had HBO back then and a Betamax to record the movies while you were sleep to watch later. Because a lot of the really good movies came on late night.
@@ilmamartinez522 Almost 6 months actually. The six month anniversary would have been July 20, 1976. Six months before June of 1977 would have been December of 1976.
I first got it in July 1988 and it was indeed magical and considered a major privledge to have the channel in your home back then. I remember feeling lucky because not everyone even had cable at that point and some people had cable but not HBO.
Tyler Nersinger Yes. Star Wars wasn’t shown on TV until 1981 and wasn’t released on VHS or Betamax until late 1984 or early 1985, as my mom remembers Star Wars Episodes 4 and 5 being new releases on Beta and VHS at the local video store when she and my father purchased their first VCR.
