Besides the quality of the transfer, that's one of the best-color peacock logos I have ever seen.

Why is the color one so much sharper?

I can't review the youtube from here (work) but the black and white is from a kinescope recording, and if I recall correctly, the youtube post said it was transferred to VHS. A VHS copy would certainly have reduced resolution.

Speaking of Jerry Lewis: from Wikipedia "That Americans can't see Jerry Lewis's genius is bewildering," says N.T. Binh, a French film magazine critic. And such bewilderment, even as late as 2013, was the basis of the 2001 book, "Why the French Love Jerry Lewis," by Rae Beth Gordon. :D

Wonder how he looks in SECAM... :D
