Let me introduce myself. I am Charles Johnson, son of Dwight O. Johnson who was the senior Vice President of National Motor Bearing Company that was a major employer in Redwood City between the years is 1942 and 1957, when the company was acquired by Federal Mogal. Approximately 1955-57 KION or KRON TV (I believe) ran a very interesting live television series called “Success Story”. They would take their crew and equipment to various SF Bay Area businesses and showcase their success. One I the programs featured National Motor Bearing Company, which was located In Redwood City. Unfortunately I don't know the exact date. My question is, to your knowledge is there an archive of those shows in existence? Please advise one way or the other or if I should direct my question elsewhere. Thanks Charles Johnson Cell: 831-594-8965
