This is what I grew up watching but I do prefer what I have now. 35-inch color tv with a DVR to record and watch my shows at my convenience, with the ability to fast-forward through television commercials. And Fiber-Optics delivering my picture and stereo sound. Crystal clear. NO SNOW OR RABBIT EARS, lol. The older folks will know what I'm talking about.

This was originally telecast on February 8, 1952, the night before Eleanor Steber's "Cosi Fan Tutte" opened at the Metropolitan Opera {on February 9th}.Yes, this is a "kinnie" [originally a live telecast, recorded on film for those affiliates unable to carry the series "live" on Friday nights at 8pm(et), and seen over those stations on a "delayed basis"- as much as six weeks after the original broadcast]. The show was also heard on radio as well.

I would say that Encyclopedia probably cost about $30 to $40 dollars back then. Which was allot of money to pay for a book. Actually with wages being about 35 cents an hour, That was allot of money period.

Neither mineral nor animal, bread belongs in the general "vegetable kingdom", as do, for example, "oak trees" and "apples". Did you not play this game when you were younger? I did, back in the 1950s, when I was a lad and enjoyed it immensely. Especially on long car trips.

Is this a kinescope recording? It's much better quality than I expected!

It's interesting all the catchy names they use for all the ugly chemicals that were probably in the products they promote.

I love classic tv with a passion but that panel show sucks big time. The members of the panel raising their hands like in elementary school, everybody talking at the same time, the host with the personality of a doorknob, everything about that programme is annoying.
