From NBC Teletext, 1983. Preserved by AssunaYuuki at the Teletext Player.
Pages from ExtraVision, CBS’s teletext service in the USA. These pages are from 1985-1989 and were provided by AssunaYuuki at the Teletext Player.
Glitched pages from the American teletext ExtraVision, preserved from tapes from 1985-1989 by AssunaYuuki for the Teletext Player. This is not textmode but vector graphics, which is why the glitches are quite dramatic and basically works of art.
American teletext preservation is very active these days, see the U.S Teletext Archive and the Teletext Discord for more.
