$61.91 shipped to the US using their currency converter. Price probably a little cheaper purchasing in Canadian $ depending on if your credit card charges for foreign transactions.

$59.23 shipped! Wow, what a deal! Combined with the Amazon.Ca deal on the complete series of PERRY MASON two weeks ago for $80 shipped, I just filled two big holes in my TV collection. Thank you for posting this, Classic Films!

I would have picked this up faster than you can say "Rowdy Yates", but not knowing whether or not Season 4 contained remastered prints made me pass up this deal. :(

Thanks anyway, OP!

I don't believe Season 4 has been remastered nor do I believe it ever will be. CBS is packaging these Complete Series releases as a kind of last hurrah for vintage TV on physical media, so I decided to just live with the inferior quality, especially at this price. The only way you might eventually get remastered prints is if someone picks up these old series for streaming, but that comes with its own issues. It could also pop up on Encore Westerns someday in better quality or on a commercial station, but the latter would involve ads, on screen logos and likely edits and/or time compression. Given the unknown alternatives, I'm fine with the DVD set, such as it is.
