Station ID Collection (and other off air photos) The first batch of id's are from the KTLA 40th Anniversary Program that was aired back in 1987. The quality is not that great since the program was first recorded on a VHS machine, transferred to a Beta tape machine, then transferred again to a second VHS machine. Other pictures on this page are fairly recent shots from video captures. I know that hasn't got much to do with history, but I'm running out of material!
