Odd Close-Up Detail

The dining room table and chairs are oddly misplaced for Robert Reed's close up in "The Teeter-Totter Caper" and I wonder what that green thing is on the right side of the table.

But later in the scene, it is corrected.

Carol Brady's Costume From "The Ten Commandments"


The Vintage Costume Collector on Instagram discovered this gem.  Carol's Cleopatra costume in "The Great Earring Caper" was a dress worn by Nina Foch in The Ten Commandments. (Also a Paramount Production)

Florence Henderson and Jonathan Winters


I don't know what show these photos are from. 
Judging by Florence's shag, I would guess 1972/1973

Not sure how they missed Winters as a guest on The Brady Bunch Hour.  That seems like a perfect job for him.

The Brady Bunch Backdrop From "What Ever Happened To Baby Jane?"

The backdrop used outside The Bradys front door was the same one used in the Bette Davis, Joan Crawford classic "What Ever Happened To Baby Jane?"! That film was shot in 1961 on a soundstage at what is now Raleigh Studios at 650 North Bronson Avenue in Los Angeles. It is located across the street from Paramount Studios where The Brady Bunch was filmed.










The backdrop was also used in The Kelly Kids episode, and an early episode of My Favorite Martian, also filmed at Paramount. 
(see links to earlier posts)



It would be interesting to know how it got to Paramount. The backdrop 
isn't an exact match to the real life location across the street from The Baby Jane House in Hancock Park in Los Angeles. (Below)
Maybe Paramount had it first and lent it to them? 

Thanks SO MUCH to Bachu for this info! 
This was a great surprise
