HAZEL-The Complete First Season-SHIRLEY BOOTH-4 DVD Box Set-Great Condition!

Description: Hi! You're looking at a great condition 4 DVD Box Set which is the COMPLETE 1st Season (35 Episodes) of the Television series "Hazel" starring SHIRLEY BOOTH--this 4 DVD Set is in great condition and all four discs play without flaw with some scuffing on the back surfaces that does not affect play and no other significant imperfections; the two slimline cases have no significant imperfections, and the outer slipcase has slight dings on the spine and opening tips, a slight crease on the center left edge of the front surface and just slight shelfwear but no other significant imperfections--it's NOT a cutout! The Box Set is titled "Hazel: The Complete First Season" and it was issued by Sony Pictures Home Entertainment in 2006 and is a full screen presentation as originally aired.Shirley Booth stars as the irrepressible housekeeper Hazel in the endearing family TV series that ran from 1961 to 1966. A brilliant character actress, Booth wisecracks her way through Hazel's life, solving the problems of her employers, the often-befuddled Baxter family, as well as of the community (busting a shoplifting ring, finding homes for stray dogs, exposing a group of financial swindlers). All this Hazel does with her cheerful working-class enthusiasm, without getting so much as a stray wrinkle in her crisply pressed maid uniform (complete with little head thingy). When she gets into her own scrapes, she shrugs them off with Brooklynese cracks like, "Looks like I'm in the soup again!" The show is a perfect snapshot of early 1960s America, complete with frozen-in-time décor (did everyone have that same print of the little-girl ballet dancer framed in their living room?) and a lovely leisurely pace. Hazel can make an entire episode out of one single premise, as when Mr. Baxter decides that an unlisted phone number might cut down on the number of crank phone calls. And who wouldn't be nostalgic for a time when middle-class households had a working dad, a mostly-stay-at-home mom, perfectly behaved kids--and live-in housekeepers? Part of the appeal of Hazel, though, is that it's clear her life is much broader than her occupation. She knows everyone in town, from the balloon guy at the local park to the most powerful judge on the bench--all of which eventually comes in handy. And did we mention she's a champion league bowler? Booth won two well-deserved Emmys for her portrayal of Hazel. A fantastic find, and a beautiful copy of this DVD!Thanks very much for looking, and good luck if you're bidding!
