Brock Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 This isn't a match as-is since the feather things are going in opposite directions, but I never before noticed the similarity between these two hats. I wonder if the costumers fashioned Reta's version on HL out of Lucy's version on ILL: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brock Posted September 5, 2012 Report Share Posted September 5, 2012 Not really a travelling prop, but I have seen this photo of Lucy and Desi seemingly hundreds of times and it only NOW just dawned on me Desi is holding a sculpture of Lucy doing her "Professor" routine. Wonder who made it and where it has ended up! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C L A U D E Posted September 5, 2012 Report Share Posted September 5, 2012 Maybe they just turned it inside out for Miss Shaw?? Or maybe she just sat on it and it became a beret. Nice find though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C L A U D E Posted September 5, 2012 Report Share Posted September 5, 2012 As i watched the show one night last week, i noticed that those dishes in the kitchen settings were really prominent, but what stunned me even more was the fact that they showed a plant holder or cover in the living room, on the fireplace that had the exact same design, never noticed that before.

UKlucyfan Posted September 5, 2012 Report Share Posted September 5, 2012 Lol same here, seen that picture millions of times and have never noticed that figurine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nertz2mertz Posted October 21, 2012 Report Share Posted October 21, 2012 Not sure if any one noticed. In Season 5 of the Lucy Show "Viv Visits Lucy", In the first scene when Lucy and Viv hug each other and other people are waking behind them. One of the passengers seems to be wearing a brown coat similar to one Lucy wore in the first two seasons of ILL. Any one knows if it's the same one?

Luvsbway Posted October 21, 2012 Report Share Posted October 21, 2012 Watched yours mine and ours. Found some clothes in the movie that made it on to TLS. As Claude noted the blue wedding dress is wore in the Paul Winchell episode. In the bocche scene the brown suit was worn many times, often with a broch. The red date dress was in the Choir Master episode. Lucy had this very loud pink printed pants suit she wore when at home in her apt. In YM and O this was worn when she was opening the letter from Frank. During the dinner and dish washing scene in YM and O. Lucy wears this checked dress, although she has an apron over it. It took me a while to solve this but in part 1 of Lucy and Carol as flight attendants Lucy is hanging up clothes as she unpacks. This checked dress is one.

Wonder who made it and where it has ended up! Well...here she be! This personal sculpture was on display for years in the Universal Hollywood Lucy Tribute. When it closed down in 2008(!) I suspect it either went to Universal Florida or back to the family. Pretty hep/odd for it's day. It even had piano wires for the strings. Look carefully and you will see her left shoe was broken off but still there and displayed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickee Posted November 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 ...and yet another of those famed ceramic cats (that moved over to the Mothers-In Law set!) from "Lucy and The French Movie Star" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leenorman Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 OMG, that`s some pretty good spotting there kiddo! PLEASE....who could miss 'bright' YELLOW, out-of-place, on such an elegant set??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, that SET was so different from anything else usually used on her shows, look at that beautiful floor, brick wall, the furniture, walls and doors, all perfect and tasteful. Even the painting and the hutch in that hallway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the painting and the hutch in that hallway. That was one of my fave entrances of hers of all time and boy, did she look gorgamus in that "frock"! And of course, the ep evolved with one of my fave "drunk" scenes of her respective series as well....no one could play 'em like she did. "I'm a very competary secretant", indeed!

HarryCarter Posted November 25, 2012 Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 Here's a prop that's seen in more shows than even the Korny Krinkles boxes! I've spotted this blue magazine cover in tons of 1960s and '70s TV series. It is frequently seen on The Lucy Show and Here's Lucy. The title on the cover usually says "Elite Magazine," but that is sometimes changed for plot purposes. It's obvious that these generic covers were put on actual magazines. Here are some examples: Lucy Is a Soda Jerk Lucy and Joan Lucy and Art Linkletter. Lucy accidentally tears the cover loose. Lucy's Big Break The Dick Van Dyke Show That Girl. The cover says "Glamour Girl Magazine" for this appearance. Bewitched The Lucy Show, The Dick Van Dyke Show, and That Girl were all filmed at Desilu/Paramount, although not all on the same lot. It was seen during the Universal years of Here's Lucy. Bewitched was filmed at Columbia. I wonder how many of these prop magazines existed, where they originated, and what other shows they appeared on. I've definitely also seen it on The Brady Bunch. There is also a pink variation that usually says "Variety" on the cover. Lucy and Eva Gabor are Hospital Roomies Mary Jane's Boyfriend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder why they couldn't just use a nationally-known, "famous-name" magazine like Life, Look, People, etc.etc.? Hmm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, i guess PRODUCT PLACEMENT did not exist back then. Well, they did mention and feature both LIFE and LOOK on I Love Lucy though.

vivfantoo* Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 I watched the Mertz & Kurtz episode yesterday & when Ethel was all dressed up in the dinner scene, I thought her dress looked familiar. Here is a link to a pic of the dress in that episode: http://www.google.co...Q9QEwAg&dur=348 And here is a link to a pic of Viv & Desi, at probably some type of awards dinner: http://www.ebay.com/...=item19b86205de Aha! Same dress . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
