4 Beverly Hillbillies Christmas episodes? Where's my wallet?
Wow, they really had to dig into the coffers to find some of those. You will have to give a full review when you get it. (That is a TON of shows!)
I'm most interested in the Ozzie & Harriet, Jack Benny and Red Skeleton as far as TV shows go. The cartoons and a couple movies as well.
