Yankees 1977 World Series Collector's Edition DVD

According to Amazon, Yankees 1977 World Series Collector's Edition DVD will be released on April 24, 2007. I can't find any details yet on this DVD set, but, I noticed that the World Series Collector's Edition DVD for the 1975 World Series is a 7-DVD set with complete game broadcasts of all seven series games. Given the price on the 1977 Series DVD, I would bet there are some complete game broadcasts in this one too.

I'm guessing that they went with 1977 because of the 30-year anniversary angle. Don't get me wrong - the 1977 post-season was exciting with Game 5 of the ALCS and Games 1 and 6 of the World Series - but, I would rather see a DVD set like this for 1978. Maybe next year?

Steve, do you own any of the other DVD sets? Any reviews?

Original broadcasts with pre/post-game interviews, and maybe a series wrapup would be awesome. LCS stuff would be a bonus.

Nope. Four mouths, one paycheck, etc.

The 96-01 'Fall Classic' set is great, although I would have liked to have seen even MORE material than was included. Guess I'll have rely on my old VHS recordings for that...
