First appearance of the iconic family car, the "Munster Koach". Only one Koach was built and it was made from three 1926 Ford Model T chassis. The custom hearse body was handmade, as were the brass radiator and fenders. It had a blood red interior and black pearl painted exterior. The Munster Koach appeared in over 20 episodes throughout the series' two-year run.
Neither Lily nor Grandpa are quite sure when Herman was finally 'completed', but they estimate 1850. Therefore, on this birthday, he's probably 114 years old.
Paul Lynde's first of 3 special appearances as 'Dr. Edward Dudley', the family's very nearsighted doctor.
Herman plays for Lily, 'Johannes Brahms's Wiegenlied' (1868), frequently referred to in English as Brahms's Lullaby or Cradle Song. The Lullaby was dedicated to Brahms's friend, Bertha Faber, on the occasion of the birth of her second son.
