1980 Winter Olympics (ABC)(copy)
(This is at least a third-generation copy. The picture quality varies from fair to good. The editing was choppy on the original tape and it looks like someone taped over parts because there will be a beginning of a segment or feature which is cut off. The coverage is incomplete, but there is some coverage from all the disciplines and most of the exhibitions are included.)
