I just came across an ad in my current SABR newsletter. World Series 1955-Game#5 Now on DVD.
For the first time, the partial TV broadcast of a vintage World Series game with origonal commercials can now be seen on DVD. At game time, the 1955 series is tied at 2 games apiece, as Roger Craig of the Brooklyn Dodgers faces the Yankees and Bob Grim in game #5 at old Ebbets Field in Brooklyn. Be there in front of your old B&W TV set 51 years later as the National Anthem is sung, and Mel Allen and Vin Sculley call the play-by-play. Double plays, a fabulous catch and four home runs(two by the Duke) are all part of the game action you'll see. A full 11/2 hours in length, this new DVD is an absolute must for all Brooklyn fans.
It's put out by Rare Sportsfilms SB. If you want the phone number or address send me a PM. The price is $29.95 + $2.00 shipping
