This wasn’t showing up and I couldn’t figure out why — then realized it must be DVD’s name triggering something. Hopefully it works this time.

It posted a first a few minutes ago must have been a lag. I think yours is hers! I love that show and the whole cast too!

Roarah, I do, too! They were all so great. :)

What a good eye you have! I've always liked the folk art look of Pennsylvania Dutch items. And I still have a milk can in a corner. Mine is from the ice cream plant where my Dad worked for years.

I loved the D VD show. The twin beds!

There was absolutely only one made. Ever.

Thanks, dee! Love that you have that milk can from your dad’s work. :)

I love folk art, too.

Jojo, I wish!

I looked up the piece and found a picture of the back:

Mine is missing this label.

The site I saw it on (I think Etsy) said these were from the 1960s, but I don’t know.

So cool that Rose Marie collected them! I’m going to look for others — I had no idea mine was part of a collection.

Just love that your sharp eye caught that Jilly! What a gem you have there. I love that picture. I too think the one you have is the one in Rose Marie's home. It has to be.

I love your little tiles on your hutch. Back when I was young and naive enough to think I could actually get a qualified tiler to put in a tile counter and backsplash in my fixer-upper home (1990s; before granite and such. One's choices were Formica or tile), I had tile samples similar to yours. Oh how I loved them and so wished I could have found someone to put them in for me. Ended up with Formica...Your hutch is so sweet.

I would never have caught that....good eye...and why not collect! Fun! It's a cool horse pic...he has a lot of style....

Thanks, SEA and nicole!

SEA, I’m obsessed with Talavera tiles. I have those leaning, and use others in our bathrooms for the soap bottles to sit on.

That hutch is so special to me — it’s custom made with Mexican pine (the back is old reclaimed wood and has dripping resin on some sections). My late husband and I got it over 20 yrs ago. :)

You do have a sharp eye! The wording on the sign gives me pause, though…

I wonder if the milk can from Morey had to do with the poster that hung in their office, for The Milk Maid, which I think was a play?

I still love the DVD Show, I can tell you in one second which episode is playing.

bpath, I wondered about the wording, too. :D

That may be! (The milk can.) I’d forgotten about that poster. Good call!

Cool !! You must be on cloud 9, Jilly! Big fan of all those shows - esp I Love Lucy and Dick Van Dyke. Watched every episode multiple times and would still today. Some of the best shows ever, to me.

The Dairy Maid

The story of the diary maid poster!

Thank you! Off to read it … :)

ETA: That was so fascinating! I had no idea what the backstory was. Wow!

❤️

I always loved that show, mainly bc I loved all of Mary Tyler Moore’s clothes.

Very cool to have Rose Marie’s sign, Jilly. She was a comic with impeccable timing.

K, I loved her clothes, too. Iirc, weren’t her capri pants controversial at first?

I so love their house and decor, too. I‘ve always wished I could tour the set as it was, as well as the I Love Lucy sets (apt, house in the country, etc).

Oh, and Mary’s apt from the MTM show!

We watched ”Ordinary People” recently, again … MTM’s acting in it is amazing. Searing and shocking.

I’m a huge fan of hers.

There is a replica of the Ricardo’s apartment at the Lucy Desi Museum in Lucy’s hometown of Jamestown NY! In color!

bpath, we should do a field trip there. :D

Perfect! :D

How could I forget - we stopped in Jamestown on our way back from a wedding. Toured the museum. Did not get to see Lucy's childhood home. Bought this tshirt for myself and my sister.

What a great shirt, Arapaho!

I saw some pictures a while back of Lucy touring her childhood home — they looked to have been taken in the 1950s. She was so beautiful.

We watch ”The Long, Long Trailer” at least once a year.

Jilly, I watched the biopic Being Mary Tyler Moore on a flight last month and found it very interesting. To say she was a complex personality is an understatement. It’s available on HBO if you have that service and if not it will eventually make its way to the other streaming services. I highly recommend it, not just for fans but for the depiction of her experiences as a decision maker, not just talent, in the entertainment business.

Thank you, K! We do have HBO, so will look for it.

What a sweet read! I have very fond memories of watching DVD when it was new, and my dad in particular would absolutely laugh hysterically qute often. I always remember her with her

LBB Little Black Bow.

You really do have a very sharp eye to notice all that. So cool. I'm sure you have hers.

wow just read the Dairy Maids history and so much so much that is all totally new to me. Gong to check out that FB page. (as an aside, I shouldn't be surprised there is such a page. I've been a member of TAGS The Andy Griffith Show fb page for a few years lol.)

Salon, I always liked her LBB. :)

What a fascinating find! You and Rose Marie were obviously soul sisters, lol!

Oly :D

Love this

Love this whole thread! It is so cool you have the tavern sign, Jilly, and I hope you can find others. I’m a Lucy fan and used to watch the reruns too.

I love your tiles. I have some tiles (4), 3 of which were given to me and one I purchased in Israel. They hang on a wall in the kitchen.

Arapaho, i love that shirt!

Thank you, Outside!

What a lovely coincidence - you must have eagle eyes 🙂

That tavern sign reproduction is very cool - and that label seems totally 50s/60s to me - there was such a craze for Early American decor back then.

DVD still holds up - so funny and such a great cast. MTM Show does as well. I love the looks of both too.

Carol, I love the early American decor in Ricky and Lucy’s ”country” house. :D

I loved the country/colonial decor of the ’60s, but my parents were firmly MCM/Danish/Baker Michael Taylor New World. So I loved when we would go to a Wisconsin resort for two weeks and the cabins were very country/colonial American furniture.

Another fan of DVD, watched the reruns growing up as a child. The show was wonderful. Loved MTM's style, even as a child/teen I disliked most 70's fashion.

Jilly - So fun to share the cute sign with Rosemarie. Your hutch is wonderful!

Such a cute story.

Jill, thank you, I’ll have my hutch forever. :)

I loved MTM’s style, too!

DVD, Mary Tyler Moore, Rose Marie - all a part of my childhood. Lucy and Ethel too. Love the sign.

I am 3 degrees from Lucy. A childhood friend is BFF with Lucie Arnaz. Only 2 if you count the time she liked one of my FB comments on his post. LOL

Allison, that’s so cool! Wow!
