Thanks, Geoff. Shokus Video (www.shokus.com) offers videos of vintage programs from the 50's, some episodes that haven't aired since their original telecasts, especially those that were done live, and some with the original commercials intact. M3S began in 1960 so, unfortunately, it isn't included. I'm very nostalgic, so I would be interested to see original airings of M3S and other shows. I ordered a copy of Burns and Allen episodes, which included the first episode, done live and with original commercials for Carnation canned milk. Since they were done live they were recorded with kinescopes, so the quality is inferior, but I don't mind.

Anyway, watching tonight's M3S episode on KAZ-TV, about Robbie's return visit, with Katie, to Bryant Park to be a best man at a wedding that never takes place, I noticed that the closing credits included logos of various cereal brands. I don't remember exactly what they all were, but I seem to remember seeing Kellogs' Frosted Flakes, Corn Flakes, and Post Raisin bran, or some brand of Raisin Bran. Next time I'll try to watch more closely. Do you know what all of the show's sponsors were during the late 60's (1969, I think), Geoff? I wonder if that could have been as it originally aired.

Thanks and good night (from Arizona, which, I guess, would make it good afternoon where you are).

Joe. (AKA TV King)
