I found a pretty good one! It is from the I Love Lucy show. It was an episode first shown on Oct. 6, 1952 and was called "The Handcuffs". Lucy and Desi put on a pair of Freds old cuffs and they are a pair of Pinkertons. As the show progresses, they walk into the bedroom to go to sleep. Now they are wearing a pair of Marlins or Caveneys. The next scene shows them back in the living room and the Pinkertons are back on.
Obviously, the scenes were filmed at different times and edited together. For the Lucy Show, Desi invented the 3 camera system and it is still used today. Shows were often shot twice so that the editor would have more film to work with and have more useable footage if one of the shots or film was bad.
