I just watched ON THE RIVIERA and didn't realize Valentine Davies (MIRACLE ON 34th STREET) and my late friend EARLE HAGEN (THE ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW, THAT GIRL, etc./orchestrations) were involved!
Jack Davis is the man!
I am still watching Walt Disney's ZORRO season 2! I am glad to have a better copy of my favorite ZORRO comic book courtesy of my friend Ron Murphy!

If you don't like what they did.....

Make a cover yourself! That is what my friend John Pelliccla did and I am happy to have one! He also made a great menu for the 1964 edition!

I have been posting a few things on EBAY again under seller MISER BROS. This is the revised edition of the RUDOLPH script copied from writer Romeo Muller's typed copy (Not the early draft featured in my book). If you are thinking about putting on a play or reading along with the musical spectacular...this is for you!

FINALLY!


KNOCK ON WOOD finally makes it's DVD debut this coming Tuesday! It was never even issued on video. It was on AMC many years ago (When the channel was still good w/ Bob Dorian) and I have been waiting to see it again for about 15 years! It came from Danny's peak period in film, when he made three of his BEST films with THE COURT JESTER, WHITE CHRISTMAS and this one! WHITE CHRISTMAS is also coming out on BLU RAY this season with some cool extras!

Sid & Marty Krofft's LES POUPEES DE PARIS



Ron Murphy has saved me many, many clipping of one of my favorite KROFFT projects over the years!
My friend Ron's father printed these MAGIC SLATES for WHITMAN PUBLISHING. He said he had boxes of these in his attic and would play with them all the time.
from Ron Murphy
Art Carney was very happy with the work he did with RANKIN/BASS PRODUCTIONS and we became friends in the later years of his life. He loved to watch all the early TV Productions he was involved with and my friend Gary Matheson set him up with many he had forgotten about.
