  • Abbot & Costello were one of the greatest comedy teams in the history of show business. You'll roar with laughter at these early comic performances taken from The Colgate Comedy Hour--a popular television show which debuted in 1951. Sit back and enjoy two entire episodes, complete with commercials--many of which are just as funny as the skits themselves!
  • This volume, with special guest stars Victor Borge and Hoagy Carmichael, is filled with hilarious skits, many revolving around the Eisenhower Inauguration: a political chat with a live donkey, pre-inaugural dance lessons for Costello, and a side-splitting inaugural "ball" which turns into a brawl!
  • Abbot & Costello's straightman/clown relationship, their perfectly timed routines, and their outrageous burlesque comedy continue to stand the test of time and will keep you in stitches as you enjoy forever the performances that made them the "Kings of Comedy."
