Struggling with research with awards...

... so I've been updating 1970s arts show Aquarius. (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0247852/reference/)

Over a hundred episodes missing, just 6 screenshots... I've put a lot of work into it. 

But there's one thing I can't find - the episode Hello Dali! (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1086915/reference/) is said to have won an Emmy. There's even photos out there of Russell Harty holding an Emmy with the Aquarius team. Yet there's no listing of a win on the official Emmy site.

The director behind it talked of winning, and it even went into his obituary. I've looked at multiple avenues of research with no luck - can anyone help with a definitive answer at all, please?

Found these, it seems it was for 2nd International Emmy Awards in 1974.

@mbmb​ Fantastic, thank you so much. Strange it's not on the Emmys site.

I'll add one of those cuttings to the entry if you don't mind.

@MovieCat​ You're welcome. I don't mind, I only took a screenshot after all :)

@MovieCat​ Btw, I noticed there was no award info for 1974 on the International Emmy Awards event page, so I added all this info to the event page now: https://www.imdb.com/event/ev0000353/1974/1/
