According to KRT Productions, a Schaumburg, Ill.- based company, this little video was created for WYCC-TV in Chicago, a PBS station.
Other than that, I know nothing. I’m assuming it’s for an upcoming documentary by the station. I’ll try to find out more.
UPDATE: Kathy Rivera, president of KRT, replied to an e-mail that her firm was commissioned about eight years ago by Illinois Tourism and the Route 66 Tourism Council to produce a program. It aired on the PBS station and won several awards.
