I've done another video clip on some old cigarette cards of 1930's movie stars, including: Dick Powell , Bing Crosby, Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy, Clark Gable, Bette Davis, Joan Crawford, Greta Garbo,Johnny Weismuller, Gary Cooper and Carole Lombard.

That's character actor Jack Collins reading from Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" in the opening sequence...the clip from Dick Powell & Company is from the end of a December 1960 episode of "DICK POWELL'S ZANE GREY THEATER"- Aaron Spelling had become Dick's producer on the series at the time {he also wrote the monologues Powell delivered at the beginning and end of every episode}- Richard Newton later worked with Aaron on "BURKE'S LAW" and co-created "THE SMOTHERS BROTHERS SHOW" with him in 1965...

Thanks for all of the info. I'm pretty sure the Collins clip is from circa 1956 or so.
