Monochrome compatible NTSC color was proposed in 1950 and approved in
1953. That was the 2nd attempt as the first NTSC comittee conjured an
incompatible system in 1941 that was generally rejected as most of the
manufacturers decided to delay introduction of consumer TV sets until
after the war was over. There was a also an attempt at standarization
in the 1930's. Light reading:

The famous irreverent NTSC acronym way predates 1980.


You might want to read what I scribbled. VIR hue correction started
in about 1980.
