Is that the medallion from "Munsters' Revenge," or a found piece, Bob?

It is a found piece, but really, really close to the screen-used one, which no longer exists to the best of my knowledge. The main difference is this one has white enamel on the medallion, and Al's had red. One of these days I'll fix it.

Bob, I keep obsessively coming back here to look at Grandpa. Either take down the pics or send him to me immediately. I can't get any work done!!

You have to wonder how many Tux's they had.  This is the first time I've seen the orange lapels, and it looks good.  Other photos something else.

here the lapels look black.

In this lobby card they look red.
What ever happened to my Transylvania Twist?

They are actually a dark purple/black in the first season- exact same jacket and pants, though.

The lapels (and pants stripes) were recovered with red satin in the second season, and for MUNSTER, GO HOME. Over time, the red satin has changed to the bronzish-orange you see.

This is Al wearing my tux on the series...





Here is the other jacket, red lapels in place...

That's terrific.  Now all you need is his thumb to be a lighter!

Ya gotta wonder, if they go through with the new Munsters series, will Grampa be allowed to smoke? He's a vampire, so it's not like he can get cancer!

Morticia Addams liked to smoke, and she did it without using Tobacco!

I think "The Munsters" used that same gag, too.
