True Hollywood Story: Andy of Mayberry, the trailer for "Angel in My Pocket", the Biographies of Andy Griffith, Don Knotts, and Ron Howard, Emmy Award/TV Land Award footage, and more.

Scripts from the show (plus scripts from Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C. and Mayberry, R.F.D., and the script for Return to Mayberry) should be included as .PDFs.
English subtitles should be included.
A collector's book should be included.
Jim Clark, Allan Newsome, and Ken Beck should be executive producers of the set.
A special tribute to Andy Griffith should be included in the set.
Sincerely,
