Sharp & Clear presentation.

"This Volume 3 is a surprisingly sharp & clear presentation of the 1954-55 SHERLOCK HOLMES TV series, much better that the presentation on the Madacy 20 episode DVD set.
This is also an improvement on Alpha/Gotham's first two volumes, which were mixed from acceptable to passable. These seem to be direct Film to DVD transfers, the first two volumes look like 3/4 video tape was used as the master source.
HOWEVER, be aware that the first episode on this disc, "RELUCTANT CARPENTER" is mastered from a splicy print. The other three episodes are quite clean.
The program line-up:
RELUCTANT CARPENTER
PERFECT HUSBAND
ROYAL MURDER
SHY BALLERINA
Highly recommended over the Madacy release. I would choose these less-compressed 4 title DVDs over Madacy's crammed DVD set."
