I'm not sure what happened to the film collection itself, though I'd look for Murray's children online to see if they may have retained the rights. Hollywood Without Makeup(1966) is being aired on TCM on Sat., March 8th at 7 AM (ET). Two of Murray's compilations of his films are available online:

Hollywood My Home Town (1965) is here:

Hollywood Without Makeup (1966) is on youtube in three parts:

Thanks, moira. I knew if there was any info on this, someone here would have it.

WOW! These Ken Murray films are priceless. How wonderful to know he was wrong when he told us we'd see them "today but probably never again."

Hi,

Happy Birthday to a very sultry Lana Turner - and with a woodpecker perched on her boobs!!! I love it.....

And, nice to see a glamourous Betty Field. I was hard pressed to choose where to look - the overly large false eyelashes or the wonderfully ample busoms!!!

You may be happy to know that Lana and Betty were friends (having worked on Peyton Place together) and that Betty was a great support to Lana in 1958. I'm sure you all know what 1958 evolved into for Lana...

Larry, I think that's supposed to be a bird of paradise.... :lol: :lol: :lol:

Dear Nancy,

Thanks for the bird of paradise info...

I was just trying to feature my 'base sense of humour' in spotlighting on Lana's many male relationships - woodPECKER!!!!!
She would have gotten a good laugh with that - she had a great sense of humour (especially about herself)....

Of course, you know I'm naughty!!
