LUCY & DESI SHOW Props


Since this was supposed to be a Live TV broadcast in the 1950's I came up with a couple of props to set the mood.

At the top is my design for the Dancing Cigarette Pack which LAKE SIMONS wore so effectively during the mid-point "Commercial" in Act Two. This was based on an actual commercial, done not on the I LOVE LUCY SHOW but on other shows during that era. It looked Great, got a Big laugh and LAKE really tapped her little heart out.

She had to be lead on and off the set as she could'nt see a thing!

At the botton is the design for the TV Set in which LUCY & DESI first appear to open the "Broadcast". They simply carried the foamcore TV on, did their bit to the Theme Song and dropped it as they went into the "Show". it was hysterical to watch.
