If there are any aging baby boomers out there (me I am 56) - Disney is finally releasing the entire 2 seasons of Zorro in November along with the 4 - 1 hour specials they did later on. If you are old enough to remember these from the late 50's or the rerun's in the early 60's - these are a must buy...Can't wait to watch these again in glorious black and white with one of the greatest character's ever - Sgt Garcia - sort of a Spanish version of Sgt Shultz.

Product Description
Out of the night, when the full moon is bright, comes the horseman known as Zorro. Debuting October 10, 1957, Walt Disney's thrilling series about the masked avenger was so successful, it made Zorro a household name -- and quashed every series that went up against it. Filled with action, adventure and suspense, this volume presents the first season's 39 episodes (all newly restored and remastered) in their original black-and-white format. To enrich your experience of Disney's unforgettable classic, this six-disc set also includes ZORRO: EL BANDIDO and ZORRO: ADIOS EL CUCHILLO, the rarely seen two-part, one-hour specials shown on Disney's anthology series, WALT DISNEY PRESENTS. Then discover the many faces of Zorro from his literary beginnings through the creation of the Disney TV series. Featuring exclusive introductions by film historian Leonard Maltin, this is a timeless collection from generations past for generations to come.

[bigred]The Complete Second Season[/bigred]



Product Description
With his sword, whip and trusty steed Tornado, Zorro continued to fight the forces of evil in the second season of Walt Disney's legendary classic. The final 39 swashbuckling episodes saw even more children dressing up as the sly fox Zorro in Spanish and making the sign of the Z. The second season aired from October 9, 1958, through July 2, 1959, and is presented here -- newly restored and remastered in its original black-and-white format. To add even more thrills to this six-disc set, we've included two rarely seen one-hour specials shown on Walt Disney's anthology series WALT DISNEY PRESENTS -- ZORRO: THE POSTPONED WEDDING and ZORRO: AULD AQUAINTANCE. You'll meet Guy Williams in a profile of the actor who became an overnight star in the role he was born to play. And you'll meet his stunt double, Buddy Van Horn. Featuring exclusive introductions by film historian Leonard Maltin, this is a timeless collection from generations past for generations to come.

I recently joined the Disney Movie Club (DON'T) to get these in color. I was waiting for them to issue
the "third season" as well, and then I learned about these, so I immediately pre-ordered them. Unlike the
Disney Club editions, these will be in their original black and white. The colorized versions were okay,
but these shows were quite well done in their original black and white.

Yeah, I loved this show when I was a kid. The lead actor, Guy Williams for some who may not remember was also the father in "Lost in Space". I need to get these Disney releases.

My copies came about a week or two ago.
