I Love Lucy Project Update (I should start numbering these) Number, ummm, 12!

Hello out there,

For anyone following (even those who haven't, why not, come get in here) I have been working on some rare scenes from the show that explore more of the Mertz's apartment building. Using dialgue, screen cues, and other things I am piecing together the most likely layout between the Ricardo's 4th floor apartment and the Mertz's 3rd floor apartment.

So, let's take a look at where it's at...

This is the most familiar part of the hallway outside of the Ricardo's front door. But.... what does it look like beyond that?

In the \"Vacation from Marriage\" episode in season 2 we learn the rough layout just outside of their apartment.

In the same episode, as well as the episode before it \"The courtroom\" We get a rough idea of how the Ricardo's might get down to the Mertz's apartment. Around the corner is the very rare set of the stairwell leading to the Mertz's apartment door.

Take a peek around the end of that hallway we can look down the stairs and see the Mertz's apartment door. No number yet as I'm matching the font to the one in the show.

I studied \"The courtroom\" episode for HOURS, pausing, replaying, zooming in, while the Ricardo's brought the TV down to the Mertz's apartment. So - for the first time - we get to see what the entire set would have looked like. I still have to include wall decorations, carpet on the stairs, and textures, obviously, but this area is about 85% complete.

Now here is a few screenshots to compare against...
