Here are 10 things you should know about Fay Bainter, born 130 years ago today. She enjoyed a long and successful career in the theatre before turning to the movies, radio and television.

A behind the scenes look at the stop motion animation for the opening sequence of 'Here's Lucy'. The gentleman seen here is animator Jim Danforth at work at Cascade Studios. Other notable stop motion commercial mascots to come out of Cascade Studios were 'The Pillsbury Doughboy' (also animated by Danforth), 'Swiss Miss', 'Mrs. Butterworth', and 'Speedy' the Alka Seltzer character.

The bouncing ball and Jack-in-the-box heads from season 5 were her least favorite. In fact, she hated it so much, she dropped it mid-season and went back to the kaleidoscope opening from the previous season. She LOVED the animated doll opening for her 'Here's Lucy' series and kept it throughout the entire run of the show. A doll head purported to be the one used in the opening for HL came up at a Profiles In History auction at Barnaby's a few years ago. I've discussed this at length with other Lucy officianados and we all agree that this was not the head used in the show, but perhaps a prototype. The doll is believed to be lost in a fire caused by arson at the warehouse where it was kept. #lucilleball #stopmotionanimation #stopmotionpuppet #hereslucy #openingsequence #classicsitcoms #classictelevision #classiccommercials #vintagecommercials #jimdanforth #animators #cascadestudios #mrsbutterworth #alkaseltzer #pillsburydoughboy #swissmiss #kaleidescope #waynelvslcy https://www.instagram.com/p/CmpRK7wPJIK/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
