@rmul91 I read that it wasn't a chalk board, but black paper. You can kinda tell sometimes how smooth the surface is that the person is writing on. And apparently all the "mystery guest" sign-ins are saved somewhere.
For a second there i thought it was Richard Burton. lol. Anyway, i dont think this was the time when the both of them were a hot couple right? who's afraid of virginia woolfe was on 1967. When was this anyway? early 60's?
This was interesting because of the unusual composition of the panel. I've never seen Richard Boone in anything but western garb. But the guest was a bore. I guess even back then Elizabeth Taylor was a money grubber because they harped on her being a profit making organization.
YES! I totally noticed too. This looks to be long before it was stolen too, so I don't quite understand what happened that night. I guess she literally forgot to put it on! Because even when she wears other jewlery she wears it! Very strange! I bet she was concious of it all night lol
"In 1988, while she was walking along New York's Lexington Avenue, a genuine piece of Americana was stolen from her when a thief snatched from around her neck the diamond-shaped necklace her husband had given her on their first wedding anniversary. The necklace had so graced her appearances on "What's My Line?" (1950) and so typified her portrayal of the sophisticated cosmopolitan that it had become a bit of an icon in fashion jewelry."
You're welcome! I also always look for the famous heart shaped pendant neclace. Souv would know (WML expert who comments with loads of tidbits for us on most of these videos!) but I think there were also two heart necklaces. I think she lost the first one or something and Martin had the original sketches kept at Tiffany & Co. so they were able to make an exact replica..? That was Arlene's not Elizabeth Montgomery wasn't it? (The Bewitched star also had a heart necklace but hers was filled in)..
Doesn't Betty White look gorgeous? (I, personally, always found her beautiful.) And that is Richard Boone, right, of Have Gun Will Travel fame? The secretary is damn good- looking too LOL. Ah the good ole days!
This is actually the period of time roughly when Elizabeth Taylor nearly died of pneumonia.
Richard Boone starred in the TV version of Have Gun Will Travel. Never saw it as a kid, but I have listened to the radio version on OTR Streaming Audio. It is still very good radio entertainment. The radio version turned out to be one of the last CBS radio dramas, next to Yours Truly Johnny Dollar.
I didn't realize it was betty white until the clip was almost over!

This aired live in March of 1960. Dorothy isn't there because she's in Los Angeles covering a murder trial.

I bet that secretary has some nice interesting stories to tell.
Lol
Ahh Betty White AND Arlene Francis.
It doesn't get any better than that.
Personally I would of liked to see Betty replace Dorothy.
Even though I like Dorothy but Betty had so much more personality.

Love WML? & Betty White's 'Life with Elizabeth' is actually a very nice show to watch too! 50's tv is simply great :D
[By the way, anyone else noticed that Arlene isn't wearing her trademark heart pendant..?]

This is an excerpt from IMDB
"In 1988, while she was walking along New York's Lexington Avenue, a genuine piece of Americana was stolen from her when a thief snatched from around her neck the diamond-shaped necklace her husband had given her on their first wedding anniversary. The necklace had so graced her appearances on "What's My Line?" (1950) and so typified her portrayal of the sophisticated cosmopolitan that it had become a bit of an icon in fashion jewelry."
So much later in 1988 =(

Oh thanks, I didn't think to check imdb or wiki for more info. That's really sad :( I always look for the little heart in every WML clip she's in.

Early in 1960 --- Nice work if you can get it.
This is actually the period of time roughly when Elizabeth Taylor nearly died of pneumonia.
