The previously released DVD releases of Her Husband's Affairs, Miss Grant Takes Richmond, The Fullar Bush Girl, and the Academy Award winning The Magic Carpet are now available together in one four-disk DVD set.

Great news but could that cover be any uglier?

 

:marionstrong: It's a pretty picture of Lucy but the colorization/effects are odd. It looks like they just colorized her eyes and maybe her lips (?) which gives the picture a weird, very unnatural look. And here we strive for a fresh, natural look. :lucycoy:

They really should be ashamed, look at the beautiful set they put together for Harlow's 100th:

Even the individual DVDs' case art is lackluster compared to what they've been doing, ie.:

This 4-disc Lucy set is a Sony product. WB does not control or have a say in the title selection or artwork/packaging of Sony's "Columbia Classics" MOD DVD-r's. The Harlow & Hepburn artwork (and WB's own RKO-Lucy collection from a few months ago) was created by Warner Archive; this 4-disc Lucy set artwork was designed by Sony/Columbia.

 

Warner Archive simply sells the Sony discs on its website, and provides marketing support, via a distribution partnership started earlier this year (largely facilitated by Warner and Sony using the same 3rd party manufacturer/shipper in Itasca IL).

Aha! Didn't realize all of this, thanks for the clarification! I couldn't understand why they'd do such a marvelous job for Harlow and not Lucy, now I know. :professor:

They were among the very first Warner Archive releases, back in April '09.
