The "Indian Head" Test Pattern

<--Click image to enlarge-->

Do you remember falling asleep in front of the television, and maybe being awakened by that loud tone? You may think there is nothing to watch on those five hundred channels now, but in the 50's and 60's, you received only one to four stations, all of which stopped broad-casting sometime around midnight. When stations "signed off," or, quit broadcasting actual programs in the old days, that is, in my youth, they would air a five minute program, called Sermonette, or Moment Of Faith, followed by the National Anthem and that obnoxious hearing test tone, playing over the famous Indian Head test pattern.
