Sorry, I don't have the video of The Munsters at Marineland (Didn't mean to get your hopes up.), but I did find this nice color picture, of Herman, Lily and Grandpa at Marineland.

Cool picture, Munsters#1! I've got it, but always cool to see again!

BTW: I mailed back and forth with a guy at Marineland and he said they were looking for a copy of the show, too. He said they had checked their archives and came up empty. He sent the picture below and said it was the only one he could find in their files. I'm going to send them a copy of the one you posted, too.

Here's the one they sent:

The only other alternatives to finding a copy, would be to check, Universal Studios, The Library of Congress, Kevin Burns, or put out a Nationwide search up on the Internet. There has to be at least 1 grainy copy out there somewhere.

There is also one more alternative I thought of. During the 1960's, at the height of the Cold War, I heard that the Soviet Union watched American TV shows to see if we were giving hints or secrets out about any of our nuclear weapons. They recorded and studied American TV shows. I wouldn't be surprised if they might have a copy, locked up in old Soviet vaults. But, I doubt they would just come right out and say, hay we got a copy you can have.

I'm pretty sure Kevin Burns supplied Image with the Marineland clip they included, (along with everything else, too, most likely!)

We'll have to see what happens. Marineland did say they were still looking, too!

Munsters#1 · 06-16-2005, 01:59 PM

I'm surprised Kevin Burns, the world's biggest Munsters collector, doesn't have a copy of it. He has everything! I've seen a list of everything he has, he's got films of the series, postcards, viewmasters, Koaches and Drag-u-las, The Munsters book by Stephen Cox, Kev's got model kits, he even has pictures of the Munsters he drew himself, he has dolls, playsets, rare footage, but the only thing he doesn't have is the Marineland Carnival???

I wonder if that drives him crazy sometimes? I gotta get that Marineland Carnival, I gotta get that Marineland Carnival. LOL!

dirtprod · 06-16-2005, 03:35 PM

I think he was the producer on all the Munster biographies on A&E, too.

Munsters#1 · 06-16-2005, 03:39 PM

Too bad they never did a Bio on, Beverley Owen, Pat Priest, or Butch Patrick. They might do one on Butch Patrick, but I'm pretty sure they're not going to do Beverley Owen & Pat Priest, since they both have relatively small careers.

dirtprod · 06-16-2005, 03:59 PM

I think Butch was on The 100 Greatest Kid Stars (40-21) on VH1 last night. Bonnie mentioned it, but it completely slipped my mind. I watched the night before...

It'd be a great thing to just profile Marilyn Munster and include Beverley, Pat and all the rest of them, too. Pat Priest called me on the phone a couple months back and she's the sweetest lady. We talked for almost an hour. It was like I had known her for years. (I guess, in a way, I have...)

Munsters#1 · 06-16-2005, 05:11 PM

That's great you got to talk to her!

Though I've never had the pleasure of meeting her in person, she really is a sweet lady.

A.P. · 06-16-2005, 05:24 PM

Munsters#1 I took your Marineland Carnival shot and combined it with a Dart card scan of that same shot un-cropped, full Lily. However the Dart car has the words "THE MUNSTERS" and not "MARINELAND CARNIVAL" so I photoshopped in what should have been there in the first place!

Munsters#1 · 06-16-2005, 05:46 PM

I hope Yvonne pulled her dress up before she got up, she looks like she'll trip.

dirtprod · 06-16-2005, 07:53 PM

AP, you're just too cool!

She looks to have put her foot up on the bench seat in front of her. Most likely, she took it off of there before walking. If not... TAKE TWO!

Pat will be at the Munster Mansion in TX for their Halloween party. She told me she doesn't do many autograph conventions anymore, but might still do one or two in the LA area, so she can see her kids and grand-kids.

My best,

Dirt, if you find out any more information about her doing shows in LA or anywhere, please post it here! I would love to meet her, but I've never known where she was appearing.

dirtprod · 06-17-2005, 01:30 AM

If I hear anything, I'll certainly post it here.

ph1l · 06-17-2005, 02:54 AM

Nice pic but I reckon Herman looks cross eyed. I hope no one minds the retouch.
