Alfred Hitchcock: The Legend Begins - 20 Movie Classics DVD Set

This item is a DVD box set titled 'Alfred Hitchcock: The Legend Begins,' part of the 'Legends Series' and marketing itself as containing '20 Movie Classics.' The packaging appears to be standard DVD case format, likely plastic, enclosed in a cardboard slipcover with a glossy finish. The dominant colors on the cover are black and gold, with a prominent black and white portrait of Alfred Hitchcock. He is depicted in a characteristic pose, looking directly at the viewer with a slightly concerned or pensive expression. The title 'Alfred Hitchcock' is displayed in a large, bold, sans-serif font, with 'The Legend Begins' in a smaller serif font below it. In the upper left corner, '20 Movie Classics' is indicated, possibly with '20' in a diamond shape. A sticker, likely a price or inventory sticker, is affixed to the upper right portion of the cover, partially obscuring 'Legends Series' text and some DVD logos. The entire product is still sealed in its original clear plastic shrink wrap, indicating it is new or unopened. This suggests excellent condition with no visible wear, tears, or scuffs to the packaging itself, although the content of the discs cannot be assessed without opening. The gold accents suggest a deluxe or collector's edition aesthetic. Given the 'Legends Series' and 'Movie Classics' designation, this set likely compiles earlier works or lesser-known films of the renowned director, rather than his universally acclaimed blockbusters. The style period is contemporary for DVD releases, likely late 1990s to 2010s.
