Editorial Reviews

Now for the first time ever, a full 1 hour, 17 minute DVD is available containing all the highlights of every game of the 1956 World Series, plus a World Series preview of both the American League champion New York Yankees and National League champion Brooklyn Dodgers, as well as part of the actual NBC TV broadcast of Game 2 of the series from Ebbets Field, Brooklyn! First you'll see a special World Series Preview - a rundown of each player on both teams before the series begins! Shown are some of baseball's greatest players of the 1950's including Roy Campanella, Jackie Robinson, Carl Furillo, Jim Gilliam, Duke Snider, Peewee Reese, Don Newcombe, Carl Erskine, Whitey Ford, Bill Skowron, Tommy Byrne, Billy Martin, Hank Bauer, Gil McDougald, Yogi Berra and Mickey Mantle! As a bonus, we're also including the last two innings of the original NBC TV broadcast (with original TV commercials) of Game 2 from Ebbets Field, Brooklyn, with Mel Allen doing the play-by-play!
