Throwback Thursday Comedy Special: Sid Caesar and Company Pantomime Toy Band Music Box
Reminiscent of the better known "Bavarian Clock" sketch from Your Show of Shows, Sid Caesar, Nanette Fabray, Howard Morris, and Carl Reiner perform in pantomime as a child's windup toy band music box.
This sketch appeared on an episode of Caesar's Hour on December 17, 1955. So let's turn the calendar back 62 years and watch the intricate movements of the players in the band as the toy goes through fast and slow cycles and finally breaks down.
Enjoy!
