MLB Vintage World Series Films - New York Mets 1969 & 1986

A longtime Tommie Agee fan from Brooklyn, I finally picked up this DVD title. While I expected the 1969 series section to be based on old television footage, MLB productions could have supplemented the game footage with interviews of those players/coaches/commentators still alive. I forgot that Yogi Berra was the Mets' first base coach during the series. And the way Mark Bellanger would choke up on his bat. The 1986 footage is more disappointing. I would say the 1986 section actually detracts from the actual drama of the games. It is presented so flatly. And where are interviews with Mookie Wilson and Bill Buckner? The soundtrack is also a bit strange as they seemed to used canned stadium sounds instead of the actual sounds of the game.

Awesome!

Was very interested to see footage of Nolan Ryan and Tom Seaver.

I purchased this DVD with the thought of replacing my VHS versions of same. I expected Joe Garagiola & Vin Scully narrating the 1986 World Series as they did on television and Lindsay Nelson & Curt Gowdy for the 1969 which were the official broadcasters on NBC. I got neither. If you own these World Series classics on VHS, don't discard them for this DVD.

Good product. No issues

This film brought back memories of those years when the Mets were really good. To see them again was a thrill. Especially the great comeback in the 86 World Series game 6.

You'll be happily recapping some of the great moments in Sports history!Lets Go Mets!

Great gift for my Met Fan family member. He was very pleased

Great for any Mets fan or baseball historian.

Good DVD 📀

What can I say? I'm a Mets fan as loyal as they come through thick and thin, and believe me the team has gone through a ton of the latter. But the Amazin's have done the impossible twice with World Series wins—the reason this DVD is an ongoing celebration for me—and have come ever so close as recently as 2015. When I was a little boy, I was a Brooklyn Dodgers fan. Their fans had to go through a lot of what Mets fans go though ("Wait till next year!"). Then the Dodgers skipped town. Not long after the Metropolitans stepped in to do a partial healing. They may not be the Dodgers but they're just as frustrating and just as lovable.

GOOD !
