Note: I was hoping that CBS would colorize this episode as one of their I Love Lucy Superstar Specials they used to do. Alas, it wasn’t meant to be. But here are clips that I colorized using deOldify. Excuse the bad camera work. I think it’s a long story.

Now you can see what the Connecticut house looked like.

The scene where we see a very young Barbara Eden:

Also, in one of my screen caps, I posted the episode summary from Bart Andrews book “The I Love Lucy Book.” In that book, he said that Barbara was 22 when the episode was made. She was actually 25.
