THE DESILU PLAYHOUSE -Collectors Edition
WESTINGHOUSE DESILU PLAYHOUSE: This collection includes seven extremely rare hour-long shows from the 1950s. Carefully transferred from the best available assets, this is must have for every collector. Desilu Playhouse ran on CBS between 1958 and 1960 on an alternating basis with the Desi-Lucy Comedy Hour. Two of it's shows served as pilot episodes for THE TWILIGHT ZONE and THE UNTOUCHABLES. Westinghouse paid a then-record $12 million to sponsor the show, which resulted in the cancellation of the prestigious anthology series STUDIO ONE, also sponsored by Westinghouse. This collection is produced by Nostalgia Merchant.
