These routines are presented in dark and white. The only piece of it that is in color are two bonus features. One of these is probably the most notorious comedy routine of all time, “Who’s on First.” This is the first time that Who’s on First has ever been presented in color, and to me, it makes it worth owning the DVD for. The rest of the routines are presented in dark and white, and were clearly taken from a proper transfer than other collections I’ve seen: They scrutinize gigantic!
Here is a list of the routines the disc includes:

Legend Films presents “ABBOTT & COSTELLO: FUNNIEST ROUTINES VOL. 2″ (1951-1954) (79 mins) (Fully Restored/Dolby Digitally Remastered) — now in COLOR and Graceful Dark and White — William (Bud) Abbott and Lou Costello (born Louis Francis Cristillo) performed together as Abbott and Costello, an American comedy duo whose work in radio, film and television made them the most well-liked comedy team during the 1940s — Thanks to the endurance of their most favorite and influential routine, “Who’s on First? “– whose rapid-fire word play and comprehension confusion station the preponderant framework for most of their best-known routines–the team is, as a result, featured in the Baseball Hall of Fame.
Universal signed them to a long-term contract, and their second film, Buck Privates, (1941) made them box-office stars — In most of their films, the position was a framework for the two comics to reintroduce comedy routines they first performed on stage — Universal also added glitzy, gratuitous production numbers (a formula borrowed from the Marx Brothers comedies) featuring The Andrews Sisters, Ted Lewis and his Orchestra, and other musical acts — They made 36 films together between 1940 and 1956 — Abbott and Costello were among the most current and highest-paid entertainers in the world during World War II — Other film successes included Enjoy That Ghost, Who Done It?, Pardon My Sarong, The Time of Their Lives, Buck Privates Approach Home, Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein, and Abbott and Costello Meet the Invisible Man.
In 1942, Abbott and Costello were the top box office design with a reported select of $10 million — They would remain a top ten box office attraction until 1952 — In 1951, they moved to television as rotating hosts of The Colgate Comedy Hour (Eddie Cantor and Martin and Lewis were among the others.) — Each note was a live hour of vaudeville in front of a theater audience, revitalizing the comedians’ performances and giving their primitive routines a novel sparkle — Contrary to common idea, however, the duo was not inducted into the Hall — (Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
