TIME FOR BEANY
(approx. 35 min.)
This Los Angeles kid's show first aired in September 1949. Produced by Bob Clampett and directed by Seymour Berns, this puppet show soon became a national phenomenon and even spawned a cartoon series.
WINKY DINK AND YOU & SUPER CIRCUS
(approx. 60 min.)
WINKY DINK AND YOU first premiered on October 10, 1953, and starred noted TV host Jack Barry and his animated sidekick Winky Dink (voiced by Mae Questel, also the voice of Betty Boop).
This show taught kids self-expression and creativity through drawing simple sketches at home. Good quality.
THE BOY'S RAILROAD CLUB VOL.One
(approx. 55 min.)
The legendary toy company, A.C. Gilbert, sponsored this classic Fifties kid's program designed to show off their line of American Flyer Trains.
Each week, the kids would welcome a guest from a well-known train line to watch them play with their trains and discuss the real world of railroading.
This tape is an absolute must for all train collectors as well as for Fifties kids who wish to relive their childhood. With classic clips of both real and model trains, it's a gem!
THE BOY'S RAILROAD CLUB VOL. Two
(approx. 55 min.)
The A.C. Gilbert Company is best known for its Erector Set series. View the collection again through a special sales film which also shows the company's telelscopes, electronic radio kits, and chemistry and road racing sets.
We also provide you with another outstanding episode of the BOY'S RAILROAD CLUB, as well as two great train-related cartoons taken from the 35mm masters: PLAYSAFE and THE MILLION DOLLAR LIMITED (which featured Superman).
And (can you believe that there is actually more?) we also give you rare outtakes of model trains which utilize tracking shots and moving platforms. This tape includes some wonderful footage.
THE LIONEL COLLECTION
(approx. 60 min.)
LIONEL CLUB HOUSE first premiered September 23, 1950, and was hosted by the Yankee Clipper himself, Joe DiMaggio.
In this tape, the kids in the clubhouse ask questions about sports and see educational films sponsored by Lionel Trains.
The clubhouse manager and co-host is Jack Barry. We also include the terrific Lionel Trains commercials and the IRON PONY, a rare Lionel Trains documentary on the setting up and making of trains.
