    =====================================
    This DVD collection comes in a hard-shell plastic case with series description and artwork
    All episodes are from original copies of older film transfers from master source to video tape (Beta then VHS) and then transferred to DVD.  The final recordings are at the 2hrs per disc speed for the best possible quality.  Due to the transfer process, and the fact that these episodes were transferred from one media to another, this does not mean 'like today's TV" quality.
    =====================================
    All episodes are in the
    PUBLIC DOMAIN
    and were custom recorded to DVD for the best quality. this is not a retail set or a copy of a retail set as NO retail release of these episodes is available.
    =====================================
    PLEASE READ BEFORE PURCHASING:
    This is NOT a retail set or a copy of a retail set as no retail release exists for this show.
    This is a custom made DVD collection made from episodes acquired in the collector arena.  These episodes are rare, extremely hard-to-find and possibly all that still exist.  In many cases, t
    hese episodes
    were transferred from a master source many years ago (master source to Beta or VHS to DVD as each media became available).
    READ MY FEEDBACK
    - many people have already acquired and have enjoyed these sets for what they are... a piece of TV history not available in stores.
    If you are unfamiliar with video collecting and do not know what a 'collector set' means... It
    DOES NOT
    mean every episode is pristine and without flaws.  It
    DOES NOT
    mean all episodes are today's TV quality.   It
    DOES NOT
    mean all episodes will look great on your Samsung 65" 4G Big Screen HDTV.
    Too many people  believe every episode of every show is available in today's TV quality.  Unfortunately, that is not the case and you
    SHOULD NOT
    be expecting that.   Please
    DO NOT
    buy any collector DVD set if you are expecting the same quality as though you are watching TVLand reruns on your Big Screen HDTV.
    BEWARE OF THOSE WHO CLAIM "NEW" QUALITY ON A  COLLECTOR SET.... Ask  if it is 'factory new' if you are unsure.
    If you are unfamiliar with what to expect from this set, please email me BEFORE purchasing.    I am an honest collector.  I have over 40+ years of collecting experience and a collection of over 250,000 video items (I lost count).   I know what is available to collectors and what is not.  Unlike some, I will not tell you what you want to hear just to make a sale.  I am not like that.  If you are expecting today's TV quality, I will tell you not to buy any collector DVD set.   If you want to watch this set for what it is, "a piece of lost TV history" then by all means do so.   I cannot be more honest in my explanation.
    DO NOT
    expect better quality than I am stating is being offered.

    =====================================
    PLEASE ASK QUESTION PRIOR TO PURCHASING.  BE CERTAIN OF WHAT YOU ARE PURCHASING BEFORE BUYING.
    THIS IS A CUSTOM MADE SET AND BECAUSE IT IS EASY TO COPY AND RETURN, I CANNOT ACCEPT RETURNS ON DVDs or CDs.  I will replace defective discs
    upon return
