1968 CBS daytime TTTTs

Did CBS save any color tapes of To Tell The Truth from its last year (1968) before it went off and would return as a syndie a year later?

These are the shows in which the theme music was changed to that bongo-and-flute piece, and the voting was shared by 100 people in the audience.  Does GSN have any of these?

I'd also love to get ahold of a decent copy of the B/W Overnight show that GSN aired early Labor Day in which the first team of challengers all claimed to be Miss Universe 1966, complete with GSN's opening B/W Overnight intro that showed footage of Jayne Mansfield on some show.  I saw it when it aired, but the cable reception on GSN and other higher-up channels was ultra-grainy where I was then (no, I don't have it in my home at present).

The final show was aired on GSN from color tape during the Y2Play marathon on 12/31/99.  GSN has also showed other daytime eps on color tape on Breakfast With the Stars.

The audience vote was introduced by the time the primetime show went off the air; the last two primetime shows (at least) had the feature. It added a little extra money to the kitty, so primetime teams could now win $1250 ($250 per wrong vote) and daytime teams could win $500 ($100 per wrong vote).
