Item History & Price
This auction is for a 16MM film containing a complete 30 minute episode of the legendary 1950s TV series “Father Knows Best” starring Robert Young and Jane Wyatt. This episode, which was Episode 25 from Season 3, is entitled “An Evening To Remember”, and it features Cornel Wilde as the guest star! It was originally aired on February 27, 1957. Here is the episode summary from IMDb:
“ Cornel Wilde has a car accident while traveling through Springfield. The person who hi...t his car just happens to be a client of Jim Anderson. Due to a mix up with Jim's secretary, Cornel Wilde shows up at the Anderson home. While waiting for Jim to arrive home, the rest of the family falls all over Cornel. Margaret invites him to stay to dinner and he agrees much to the excitement of all the Andersons! When Jim returns home he discovers that the gentleman that hit Cornel Wilde's car has decided to make a 'killing' by embellishing the events and getting a big pay day from the movie star. Jim of course puts a stop to this and a grateful Cornel agrees to babysit with Kathy when the regular sitter cancels. The rest of the family leave to go to their respective commitments, but one by one each returns home early to spend 'An Evening to Remember' with their special guest.”
This film is a wonderful network print with all the original Scot paper product commercials. The B&W picture is very good (see actual screen shots), the sound is strong, the film runs smoothly, and there is no vinegar smell. The film is complete with beginning titles and end credits.
Thanks for looking at this great piece of television history.
