I've restored 80% (4 of 5 games) of the first-ever Howard Cosell halftime highlights segment, shown during the initial ABC Monday Night Football broadcast between the Jets and Browns on September 21, 1970.

The halftime highlight segments were always notorious for using awful-quality clips (way too bright, blown out, not crisp, etc). I found high-quality clips of the same shots/plays from other sources (mainly the 1970 Week 1 'This Week in Pro Football' show) and replaced the original clips with these.

I even re-created the original ABC on-screen graphics.

In some cases the original clips were a bit longer than the replacement shots and so I truncated parts of the narration to make things fit. I also omitted a play or two that I did not have new footage for.

I couldn't find too many replacement shots for the Cardinals/Rams game, so I omitted that one.

I worked on the original audio a bit, applying hiss and noise reduction.

For comparison's sake, you can see the original quality segment here and be blown away by the upgrade --- https://youtu.be/0zPj6lFuzL4?t=5916
