OMG... I laughed so loud, the funniest I've seen. Also I'm always amazed at how elegant the men and women are in this bygone era. The women are beautifully styled and the men are clean shaven and well groomed. We live in such a grungie world now!
Might this be found in Steve Allen's living room? Not if Jayne has anything to say about it! This was a hilarious segment, a lot of fun; thank you very much for sharing this (and other classic WHAT'S MY LINE? segments) with us!!!!!
@TrevWks Calendars of that era were made with spiral springs. Each page was separate and moved around the spring. The spring would be a substantial and critical part of the calendar.
Surprisingly, I purchased one of the original Monroe calanders for a gift, about a year ago ,they were beautifully done. Never thought I see this topic discussed here. Too bad Marilyn wasnt a Mystery guest. Thanks much again for posting all these shows.
true. does anyone know why MM has never been invited to be a mystery guest? From 1956 till 1961 she lived in New York.. so it would not have been not to far for her to show up at the studio....
you CAN'T have Marilyn Monroe talk, the whole panel would know her immediately. They did have the female judo instructor who was a dead ringer for her though...
@@ulrichlehnhardt4293 It was actually on one of her contracts that she was not aloud to make many television appearances, as she was more a movie type character and television would "not be good for her image".
@TrevWks actually, if you think about it, giving "no" to those questions would be misleading. staples (or as another poster pointed out, spirals) are made of metal, and you do move the parts of the calendar by necessity. it was up to them to zero in on the yes answers and get to the heart of the matter.
I totally agree. Personally I think the lighter her hair, the prettier she looked. Her beautiful face just pops and gets more accentuated when her hair is light. But her true beauty came from within anyway.
There were certain guests that would have been so recognisable the panel would have guested immediately. Marlyn Monroe And Elvis Presley we’re in this category Mores the pity. A great show from long ago. Now we just have relatity shows. Yuk
He didn't specify that it was a necessity to live, only that it was a necessity in the broad sense of the word. A calendar is certainly a necessity to conduct business, maintain appointments, etc.
Well I guess this proves those wrong that claim LGBTQ men never appeared on TV in the 1950s. Bennett makes it pretty clear by guessing the guy is an "interior designer". Art Gasior lived a long life and spent 61 years married to his wife.
Beginning in the 1950s, my father too sold advertising novelties, including calendars also reflecting MM. After I learned he placed his old samples in our newspaper pile, that began my earliest sex-ed.

Steve Allen had a talent for going off the rails without knowing where he was going.

I actually saw Marilyn Monroe and Arthur Miller coming out of a store in Woodbury Ct. around 1960. Didn’t mean that much being only about 9.
Steve Allen's reactions completely add to the hilarity of these clips! So funny.
Dorothy resembling the Sydney Opera House this evening. Thanks very much.
A man making a livelihood selling a girlie calendar.....only possible in the early '50's! Amazing.
Hahahaha...This show is funny. Steve Allen's questions crack me up!!!

I didn’t know Shostakovich’s English was so good!
I'm sure some fan of hers must have a copy of this calendar.

@@ulrichlehnhardt4293 Is it a fact that she was never invited?
An invitation may have been made but she chose to decline the invitation.
Arlene looks so pretty here!
Funny how DK is sitting in Bennett's seat and vice-versa!
You don't often see Bennett and Dorothy in opposite seats.
True: but this aired in early 1954, and at that time, the seating arrangement wasn't yet fully set, so to speak.....

Why did Dorothy ask to feel his muscle?
Beginning in 1730 originally all Geisha were male. Woman didn't enter the profession until 1750 and dominated by 1780.
According to the WML database on tv dot com, this one first aired on 1/3/54.
THIS VIDEO LOKS SO CLEar,I COULD Almost watch dorothy in color,AND HER BEAutiful es
eyes
oh my, that was incredibly funny.
He didn't bring one? What kind of salesman is he?
I always found it annoying when Dorothy wanted to touch the guest!
How is that not used for amusement?
Instead of going to the movies might you sit at home and look at this instead?
This is from 1953
1954 actually
4:44 I'm pretty sure that paper has been alive....
.... and it's made of *metal* ? With "moving parts"?
I love all the contestants with the risque occupations too. lol they seem to be the funnier shows!
Cerf sitting on the left ? What's going on ?
@ipmoic ~ it's a play on the contestants last name. art gasior. pronounced gay-shore.
I wish I could understand what Dorothy said at the end, because she thought she "had it" a couple of minutes before.
YES
Oh my God! It's Shostakovich!!! :)
you are right ,,,,a bit thinner ,,,
love all the close ups of the panel in this clip. "is this thing or has it ever been alive?" i'm guessing this is before 1962.
Yes, this is from 1954. But how did you guess it was before 1962?😂
@@jurajvivana5827 wow, this comment is 10 years ago, marilyn committed suicide aug. 4 1962. she was just 36.
@@tomitstube yes haha very old comment, also I know she died in 1962

Contestant looks a lot like Steve Allen.
it was another time....
This calendar boy would lose his job in 9 years.
There were certain guests that would have been so recognisable the panel would have guested immediately. Marlyn Monroe And Elvis Presley we’re in this category Mores the pity. A great show from long ago. Now we just have relatity shows. Yuk
@hankaaron1961 Please explain.
Hmm, I wonder if it was the famous one featuring the picture from 1947 where Marilyn is showing a little too much skin.
1949, I believe. And what is too much skin?
I think he's a boy wizard
what year is this???
1954
Two of the panelists' guesses could be construed as suggesting the contestant was homosexual - Interior decorator & clarinet player
Well as a gay man myself, he clearly IS a homosexual.
I will take a Marilyn Monroe calendar over a Lady GaGa calendar any day
I really wish his name was Art Vandelay, that would have been epic.
We really don't have anyone like Marilyn Monroe anymore. Pam Anderson was the last to come close.
But not very close
@hankaaron1961 Don't believe everything that people write here.

Bad call, John. A calendar is a luxury. It is not a necessity of life. If one didn't haven't have a calendar they wouldn't die.
This was before smart phones and the internet.
@@zaramahmood9628 The Dilbert cartoon today, 1/16/19, opens with the pointy-haired boss saying
he "hired a Millennial who was raised by SmartPhones"

There are parts that move? Sells where? Be nice to have shown.
Couldn't buy it in a department store? My, times really have changed. And, yes, this guest does look very much like Shostakovich.

thanks for the information. She was once on person to person and on the Jack Benny show though.
Too bad it didn't get back to Dorothy so she could pull it out thin air, per usual. Being tipped-off in advance certainly helps, eh, Dorothy?
Annoying audience
