Emmett Kelly appears on What's My Line? March 11, 1956. Fred Allen's reaction to Emmett Kelly is wonderful to see. Of great importance to note, this is Fred Allen's last appearance on What's My Line? as he would pass away days later on St. Patrick's Day, March 17.

  • One of the great entrances in the whole history of WML.

    Considering how important this kinescope is in TV history, G-T did not do a good job of preservation. The second mystery guest sequence is completely missing.

    For those who accuse Dorothy Kilgallen of being argumentative, ( 2:00 ) get a load of Arlene confronting John over definitions.

  • Well said!

  • Emmett, his son and grandson... There's an interesting story worth reading.

  • Love this! Thanks for posting.

  • that has to be the most sullen clown I've ever seen.

  • That's the saddest looking clown I've ever seen...

  • Not only do the male members of the panel stand to shake his hand (as they do in every episode of course), Mr. Kelly removes his hat, like a proper gentleman, when shaking hands with the ladies.

    These small niceties have been lost.

  • A clown so famous that even I have heard of him.

  • i LOVE the clown

  • A native of Bazaar, Kansas, he was elected to the Kansas Hall of Fame a few years ago. Few were more deserving of the honor.

  • okay??????????????????????????­?????????

  • He was a true hero during the tragic circus fire in Hartford CT July 1944.
