This set contains a rarity: three first-season
I Love Lucy
episodes ("The Ballet," "The Benefit" and "Breaking the Lease") that were originally edited together into feature length form with introductory and connecting scenes; Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz's production company, Desilu, originally planned to release the film to theaters but avoided this gambit lest the release interfere with that of the 1954 Ball-Arnaz MGM comedy
The Long, Long Trailer
. The set at hand contains both that feature and a series of other rarities including
's first commercial, highlights from a Lucy-Desi appearance on
The Ed Wynn Show
, the only colorized
episode ever made, highlights from
's reception of various honors at the
Sixth Annual Emmy Award
and more.
