Comedy: Classic Black & White: Condition - New/Sealed: REGION FREE - Interactive Menus - Scene Selection -Featuring shows telecast from 1950 to 1955. STARS: Eddie Cantor, Frank Sinatra, Eddie Fisher, Abbott and Costello, Victor Borge. 83 minutes. Digitally Remastered 2005 by Miracle Pictures div. of PMC Corp. Shows of this time period were originally made by aiming a motion picture film camera at a live T.V. monitor of the live show being broadcast (Kinescope) as there were no Video recorders in those days and then these films were remastered to DVD. This DVD takes Public Domain material (entertainment that original copyright date has expired) like all reissue companies from film or video and converts them to DVD for reissue. Unfortunately reissue entertainment companies do not have the $25,000 per frame cost (30 frames per minute) or $100,000 New Cover Mastering costs to to restore old films or video tapes audio & video masters to the modern digital possibilities but do offer us a window on the past and interesting or entertaining subjects like these LIVE TV SHOWS of the 1950's!

What a joy to see these old television classics. The quality of the picture is poor, but the sound is excellent. If you're old enough to remember Eddie Cantor you'll love seeing him again. The Abbott and Costello program includes a live performance of their classic "Who's on First." We also get a chance to see a young Frank Sinatra singing in his prime. This DVD is priceless.
