Please Stand By: Lester & Charlie's 50 Favorite Tv Test Patterns

Coffee table books have tackled tough subjects ranging from decoder rings to phobias to suicidal pets. Why not test patterns? Yes, test patterns. If you remember them, you may only be aware of "your" patterns -- the ones your local stations showed when they ran out of things to put on the air. But test patterns were used everywhere televisions were used, for reasons you may never have thought about. And there were as many of them as there were pixels in a TV tube. From that huge variety the world over, Lester & Charlie have assembled their favorite 50. Gawk at their astounding beauty! And get nostalgic with ones you may know from television's past. 9781481840941 1481840940 102 Art NOT_MATURE http://books.google.com/books/content?id=BTTanQEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&source=gbs_api en
