00:19and continue a journey towards a fortune in cash and prizes, including a luxury automobile and $50,000 in cash.
00:30In total, over $100,000 on Sale of the Century.
00:37And now, here's the star of the show, Jim Perry.
00:42Hello there. Thank you very much. Thank you.
00:45Good to have you here in the studio.
00:47Delighted to have you join us for Sale of the Century.
00:49Did you see that total? A fine champion on a very important day today.
00:53Glad you're here with us. Let's welcome him back. Phil Cambry.
00:55Hello, Phil. Hi, Jim.
00:57Almost $50,000 in cash and prizes. You have won six times today.
01:03If you win, we saw it at the top of the show, win today, and you play that winner's big money game for that beautiful automobile.
01:09It is lovely.
01:10Are you ready?
01:11Oh, yes.
01:12Good luck. And also on the line, just to make it more intriguing, when it comes up, the instant cash stands today at $11,000.
01:19So there is a lot at stake. And here's the way to introduce the challenger, the challenger, Summer Bartholomew.
01:24I'm getting nervous.
01:24The Chummer, yeah.
01:25The Chummer.
01:26The Chummer, Summer. My Chummer, Summer.
01:29This contestant doesn't give a darn from Diamond Bar, California. Welcome, Pam Moran.
01:34Hello, Pam.
01:34And he has a Believe It or Not story. We're from Chicago, Illinois. Here's Steve Collick.
01:38Hello there, Steve.
01:39He's excited.
01:40Okay, Chum, Chum. Yes, I am. See you later.
01:43Steve, you have a Believe It or Not story?
01:45It's unbelievable, Jim. My next-door neighbor turned out to be my childhood friend's long-lost twin.
01:52Oh, really? That is a Believe It or Not story there. Nice to have you here with us.
01:56And, Pam, you don't give a darn.
01:59Well, Jim, I've got the largest pile of mending, I think, in Southern California. It's not my favorite task.
02:04So once a year, I go through it and throw away the things that no longer fit my family. That way, I never have to do it.
02:09Oh, that's the only way to do it. Absolutely. Nice to have you here.
02:13Well, good luck to all three of you. This is a very important match.
02:16And in addition to all the lovely things we've been talking about, there is, of course, a lovely prize for winning the match.
02:21And today, it's a very intriguing prize. It is a jukebox worth $3,500.
02:26That's the first thing the winner gets.
02:28Now, you'll all get $20 as we get into this all-important match for this question.
02:32In Mexico, what Disney character is known as Miguelito...
02:36Pam?
02:36Mickey Mouse.
02:37Miguelito Raton is Mickey Mouse. Well done.
02:40$5 for the correct answer. Pam goes to $25.
02:42Eastern mystics contemplate them, and they can be...
02:46Phil?
02:46They're navels.
02:47Innies or outies. Navels is right.
02:49Yes.
02:50Sounded dumb when he said it, but he was right.
02:53You get $5 to $25.
02:55On what holiday do friends get together to watch the ball drop in New...
02:59Pam?
03:00New Year's Eve.
03:01Yeah, New York's Times Square.
03:02Pam goes into the lead again at $30.
03:05If you find someone's weak spot, it is referred to as their...
03:08Steve.
03:08Achilles heel.
03:09And Steve is great with anticipation to $25.
03:13With what healthy dairy treat do we associate the name...
03:16Steve?
03:17Yogurt.
03:18Dannon, Johnston, and Yoplait.
03:19Yes, yogurt it is.
03:22Well, Steve ties Pam.
03:24Obviously, the champion's got a couple of good challengers, and with an instant bargain,
03:28the player in the lead could normally buy bargain merchandise, but Steve and Pam, you're in a tie.
03:32Only one of you can have this.
03:33When you hear the low sale of the century price hit your buzzer for one of you, this is yours.
03:38Steve or Pam, a beautiful way to say I love you is with Michael C. Fina's beautifully designed, delicate, 14-carat gold bangle bracelet.
03:47Crowned with 15 diamonds, furnished by the Michael C. Fina Company.
03:53It's normally priced at $500.
03:56But today on sale of the century, it was for only $6.
04:00Just $6.
04:02Beautiful bracelet.
04:04I thought from the expression on Pam's face, she jumped.
04:07Pam jumped.
04:09She loves it.
04:10She got herself a beautiful bracelet for $6.
04:13Congratulations, Sarah Pam.
04:17I think she likes it.
04:19I do.
04:21We'll knock the $6.
04:23Boy, if it would have been a car, imagine what would have happened.
04:25We'll knock the $6 off.
04:26Enjoy that, Pam.
04:27Now let's get back with the three of you in this.
04:30She'll join the cast of Star Trek, The Next Generation, as an alien humanoid named Gwinen.
04:35She's comedian Whoopi...
04:37Phil Goldberg.
04:38Goldberg, yes, she's joining Star Trek.
04:40You tie Steve for the lead.
04:41What country are you visiting if you tune in a local TV station on the CBC?
04:46Steve.
04:47Great Britain.
04:48No.
04:48CBC.
04:49That's the BBC.
04:50CBC is the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.
04:53And you lose five for the incorrect answer.
04:55The longest mustache and the largest pizza are just two of the entries you'll find.
05:00Pam?
05:00Guinness Book of World Records.
05:02You are right.
05:02You better know the five.
05:03You're just a dollar behind Phil.
05:06Well, $5 separate the players.
05:08Good game.
05:09Fame game.
05:09$10 money card up there as we look for a famous person.
05:13I was born in the British Isles in 1945.
05:16Became a rock legend in the 70s.
05:18And now I'm making a comeback with my new album, which includes Forever Young.
05:22I was a semi-pro soccer player.
05:24Worked as a gravedigger.
05:25Before I joined such bands as the Five Dimensions, Hoochie Coochie Men.
05:30Phil?
05:30Keith Richard.
05:31No.
05:32Break for the challengers.
05:33Champions out of the rest of the question.
05:34We'll clear it.
05:35Continue for Steve and Pam.
05:36And the faces was another.
05:38I played harmonica.
05:39Had such hits as Every Picture Tells a Story.
05:42Tonight's the Night.
05:43My trademarks are spiky blonde hair and a raspy voice.
05:47Steve?
05:47Rod Stewart.
05:48You got it.
05:49You've got control of the board.
05:50Rod Stewart.
05:50I don't know what it is.
05:51Ten dollar money card.
05:52Where are you from?
05:53It's camera number four.
05:54Lights are flashing.
05:55We lock into your buzzer.
05:56If you hit the ten, you would go into the lead.
05:58Good luck, Steve.
05:58You get ten dollar money card.
05:59Ten dollar money card.
06:00Now.
06:01No.
06:01That's on number three.
06:02And he gets.
06:03It's parquet flooring.
06:04All right.
06:05Hartco solid oak parquet flooring.
06:07A beautiful oak floor designed to install yourself with a cushion foam backing for your added comfort.
06:12Finished by Hartco parquet.
06:15Well, it's very nice, but not the money card you were looking for.
06:18The game is very close.
06:19And we'll be back to it.
06:21Don't go away.
06:21Right after this.
06:25Introducing all the guys back to this match with Phil at 30.
06:28Pam, just a question behind a 29 and richer by one bracelet.
06:33And Steve, a question behind a 25.
06:35A favorite in Irish cooking is a boiled dish consisting of corned beef.
06:39Pam.
06:40And cabbage.
06:40And Pam goes into the lead by four.
06:42Yes.
06:44At the beginning of a ball game, you'll be asked to stand when they sing.
06:47See.
06:49The Star Spangled Banner.
06:53The Star Spangled Banner, of course, of course, of course, of course.
06:55You lose five.
06:56Down to 20.
06:57Speaking of our national anthem, Ray Charles has begun a crusade to change the anthem from The Star Spangled Banner to the more soulful rant, Pam.
07:05And America the Beautiful.
07:07Yeah, that's a good, that's a nice, easier song to sing.
07:10Yes, it is.
07:10And Pam adds another five to 39.
07:12By what famous nickname do we know former house speaker Thomas O'Neill?
07:16Phil.
07:17Tip.
07:17Tip is right.
07:18And Phil goes to 35.
07:19But with an instant bargain, Pam, you've got the lead all to yourself.
07:25Pam, look at this.
07:27Pam, the perfect companions for home or office, a computerized dictionary thesaurus with 80,000 words, the geopolitical illuminated globe, and aerial books of London and Paris.
07:40Yours with a gift certificate from Hemlocker Schlemmer and Company.
07:43It's normally priced at $1,000, but today on sale of the century, it's for only $11.
07:50Well, very nice.
07:52So, it is a lot of items that we're showing here that maybe your youngsters might be interested in.
07:58You might have a lot of fun with a $1,000 gift certificate at Hemlocker Schlemmer.
08:02And Pam, I'd like to see her react, right?
08:05I know.
08:06You've got a $4 lead.
08:08Pam, would you like the $1,000 gift certificate for $4 going once?
08:11What are the cars you're going to buy?
08:13Enjoy that for $4.
08:15That should be a lot of fun.
08:17$1,000 to spend at Hemlocker Schlemmer for $4.
08:20Not too bad.
08:21We'll knock it off.
08:22And she and Phil are now back into that tie.
08:25Steve, just 15 behind.
08:26What are you doing if you've involuntarily released lacrimal fluid from your eyes?
08:31Pam.
08:32Crying.
08:33Crying.
08:33Yeah, that's right.
08:34Yeah, Pam goes back into the lead.
08:37She is amazed by her own genius there, friends.
08:41The largest state east of the Mississippi has two nicknames.
08:46The Peach State, the Goober State.
08:48Phil.
08:48Maine.
08:49No.
08:50Georgia is the Peach State or the Goober State.
08:52And the champion loses five down to 30.
08:54In law, if you disrupt a court proceeding, the judge can...
08:57Phil.
08:58Contempt.
08:58Can hold you yes in contempt.
09:00Contempt of court.
09:00Either one acceptable.
09:01You're back to 35.
09:02One of the screen's most handsome and suave playboys was this star of North by Northwest.
09:07Phil.
09:08Cary Grant.
09:08Cary Grant is right, and you've tied Pam for the lead again.
09:11Yes.
09:12Well, Cary Grant was notorious for being not exactly a cheap guy, but a thrifty one.
09:17He once said that,
09:19I used to telephone Clark Gable, who had the same initials, each Christmas and say,
09:23did you get any monogrammed stuff that you don't want?
09:26And if he said yes, Cary said he would hurry around and then exchange initial presents.
09:31We will be right back.
09:32Well, I mentioned the importance of this match, and after six wins, if our champion Phil Cambry
09:45wins today, he will get a crack at this beautiful automobile.
09:49That's right, Jim.
09:51Today, Phil could win an Eagle Premier ES.
09:54Features a 3.0 liter fuel-injected V6 engine, automatic transmission, air conditioning, and AM-FM stereo cassette with equalizer.
10:04Furnished by Berge Jeep Eagle, this prize is worth $19,188.
10:10But first, he has to win.
10:14And right now, Phil and Pam are in a tie for the lead at 40 and Steve 20 behind.
10:20Fame game.
10:21Another money card goes up there.
10:22$15.
10:23We look for a famous person.
10:25I am an actor and rock musician who got started as a carnival clown.
10:29I was born in Texas in 1954 and followed my brother to Hollywood.
10:33I made a series of flops and near flops, such as Jaws 3D,
10:37until I landed a part in the critically acclaimed Breaking Away.
10:40Then followed such films as The Long Riders, in which I starred with my brother Randy.
10:45Pam.
10:46Henry Fonda.
10:47No.
10:48Out of the rest of the question, we'll clear it.
10:50Continue for Steve and Phil.
10:51Phil wasn't needing it.
10:52Dennis Quaid.
10:52And he's got control of the board.
10:54Dennis Quaid it is, yeah.
10:56$15 money card where or something?
10:57It's going to number eight.
10:58Well, I don't have to tell you how important it is in a tie for the lead right now, Phil.
11:02Good luck.
11:03All right.
11:04$15 money card.
11:06Now, no.
11:07Plans on number six.
11:08The champion gets...
11:09It's a China tea set.
11:10Classic Rose brings timeless style to afternoon tea with its beautiful Donatello tea set.
11:16Part of the Classic Rose collection, furnished by Rosenthal Group.
11:20Beautiful prize worth over $600, but not the money card he wanted.
11:25And, of course, as we come back with Pam back in, as we were playing for control of the board,
11:29the score remains the same.
11:30Pam and Phil in that tie, and Steve still 20 behind.
11:33Daughter Paloma is a famous designer.
11:36Phil.
11:36Picasso.
11:37That's exactly right.
11:38Father Pablo, one of the greatest painters.
11:39Picasso it is.
11:40Phil in the lead.
11:42In this show's fourth season, romance is on the agenda for its suave star, Edward Woodward.
11:47Phil.
11:48The Equalizer.
11:48That's the show on a $10 lead for Phil.
11:51Over two-thirds of the population of this state belong to the Mormon religion.
11:55Phil.
11:55Utah.
11:56Utah's right, and Phil stretches out a $15 lead.
11:59And now, Phil.
12:01Oh, boy.
12:02Instant cash.
12:03He's tried and tried and missed and missed.
12:07Three boxes.
12:08Two have $100 bills.
12:10One is worth $11,000.
12:14Cost you that $15 lead if you want to go for it.
12:17Phil going.
12:17Going to go for it again.
12:19We'll knock the $15 off.
12:21That's what you and Pam back into that tie.
12:23Now, Phil.
12:25Which box?
12:27I'm going to try box number one again.
12:29For what?
12:30He's jumped back and forth from one to three.
12:32He's back to one.
12:33Is he right for $11,000?
12:35Good luck, Phil.
12:37Oh, he did it!
12:41After about six tries, he did it, winning the instant cash for $11,000.
12:50Congratulations, Phil.
12:51I don't think anybody's ever worked harder to do it, and he did it.
12:55Back to the match.
12:56Remember, that car is still up to ground right after this.
13:00Oh, my God.
13:03Woo!
13:05Oh.
13:05Oh.
13:05Settle down.
13:08Phil Camry, congratulations.
13:10$11,000.
13:11I cannot remember someone trying more times and missing, and you finally came through in
13:16a big way.
13:16Me either.
13:16I watch the show a lot.
13:17I don't remember anybody.
13:19Congratulations.
13:20$11,000 in cash.
13:21And now back to serious business.
13:22Because remember, in all of that, Phil, if he wins this match, plays for the car.
13:27He and Pam now on the tie.
13:28Steve's still that 20 behind.
13:29On your Hungarian honeymoon, your suite at the Budapest Hilton overlooks a beautiful blue
13:34river.
13:35Steve, the Danube.
13:36Danube it is.
13:36Steve makes it closer to 25.
13:38They Always Call Us Ladies is the newest book by the woman convicted of killing Scarsdale
13:44diet author, Dr. Tonauer.
13:46She's Jean Phil...
13:48Jean Harris.
13:51Jean Harris couldn't come up with the champion, loses five.
13:55On April 17, 1961, the United States backed an unsuccessful invasion of Cuba called...
14:00Phil...
14:01The Bay of Pigs.
14:02The Bay of Pigs it is.
14:02And again, that tie with Pam.
14:04Yes.
14:06All three money cars up on the board.
14:08Big fame game and a famous thing.
14:10I am an important body of water on which construction began in 1906.
14:15Steve.
14:16The Suez Canal.
14:17That is incorrect.
14:18Out of the rest of the question, we'll clear it.
14:19Continue for Pam and for...
14:20Clear it.
14:21We'll continue for Pam and Phil.
14:23Phil.
14:23The Panama Canal.
14:24That's right.
14:25For control of the board.
14:26And a $25 money card where, Simon?
14:29It's behind the number nine.
14:30Phil, you're going to tie right now and you have control.
14:33Good luck.
14:34All right.
14:36I've got to have the $25 money card.
14:38And I need it now.
14:40No.
14:41Number five.
14:41This time he gets...
14:42It's a mattress.
14:44Englander's premium queen-size sleep set, the Lady Englander Velvet Touch.
14:48Features an exclusive Innerspring system designed for the support you need and the comfort you want.
14:55Big prize.
14:56$1,800.
14:57Yeah, that's a biggie.
14:58But it wasn't the money card he wanted for.
15:00And now with a jukebox worth $3,500 on the line.
15:03And more importantly for the champion, a crack at that beautiful automobile.
15:06We finish it up with a speed round.
15:08May I have 60 seconds on the clock.
15:10And Pam and Phil in a tie at 40.
15:12Steve, of course, back in at 25.
15:14Good luck to all three of you as we start the speed round.
15:17Now, what kind of busy insects make their home run?
15:19Pam?
15:20Bees.
15:20Right.
15:20In what Oscar-winning movie did Julie Andrews play governess?
15:23Pam?
15:24Um, uh...
15:25Time.
15:26Time.
15:26On a telephone, what three digits do you dial for local information?
15:30Pam?
15:30Um, 411.
15:31Right.
15:32If you're an easy target for something, you might be described...
15:34Steve?
15:35Gullible.
15:35Wrong.
15:36What Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist is partnered with critic Gene Siskel?
15:39Phil?
15:40Ebert.
15:41Right.
15:41In what London landmark would you find the crown jewels?
15:44Steve?
15:44Tower of London.
15:45Right.
15:45What do we call the group of citizens who are sworn in to hear the testimony of the
15:49trial?
15:49Phil?
15:49A jury.
15:50Right.
15:50What fabulous foursome was discovered while...
15:52Steve?
15:53The Beatles.
15:53Right.
15:54In Michigan, Dearborn, Lincoln Park, and Pontiac are suburbs of...
15:58Phil?
15:58Detroit.
15:58Right.
15:59The popular author who wrote the autobiographical novel The Perfect Spy is John...
16:04Phil?
16:04Le Carr.
16:05Right.
16:06In what European country could you attend a big fair called Oktoberfest?
16:09Steve?
16:10Germany.
16:10Right.
16:11Which of the planets shares its name with the Roman goddess of love and beauty?
16:15Pam?
16:15Venus.
16:15Right.
16:16Where in Pennsylvania would you be if your time is up?
16:18Phil has won it.
16:19Good job to listen.
16:21Back to the champion in just a moment.
16:23First of all, quickly to wrap up.
16:26One that cost Pam, and it was a $10 difference.
16:29Pam, you would have tied him if you would remember Julie Andrews played governess to the
16:33Van Trapp family in The Sound of Music.
16:35I saw her flying around.
16:37Yeah.
16:37Steve, no, that was Mary Poppins, as a matter of fact, Pam.
16:40Sitting duck is what you'd be if you were an easy target, Steve.
16:43Gotta say goodbye to Steve and the Pam.
16:44Neither going home empty-handed.
16:46Steve, you got the flooring with the cash in front of you.
16:48You're over the $400 mark.
16:49Thank you for joining us.
16:51Pam, you've had a very good day with some things you obviously enjoyed.
16:54The beautiful bracelet, the lovely gift certificate with the cash in front of you.
16:58$1,550 for the day.
17:00Congratulations.
17:01Enjoy all those goodies.
17:03But Phil Cambry did it with a lot of pressure on him, Phil, and it was indeed a lot of pressure.
17:07And among the other good things, first of all, you've got this great jukebox coming to you.
17:11Phil, watch your 160 favorite hits go around through the curved front window in this brand-new computerized jukebox.
17:18Its 200 watts of stereo power make listening a pleasure.
17:22Furnished by Jukebox's Unlimited Los Angeles, this prize is worth $3,495.
17:29Okay, Phil, congratulations.
17:33That's lovely.
17:33But now he joins me to play that winner's big money game, and it is important.
17:38Come on, Phil.
17:43Congratulations.
17:44Congratulations.
17:46Well, here we stand, Phil.
17:48And I don't have to tell you, as we look behind you, you're playing the winner's big money game for that beautiful automobile.
17:56Now, the big choice, red, yellow, or blue, which envelope is it going to be?
17:58The car is sort of red.
18:00Take red.
18:01All right.
18:01Saw four puzzles in 20 seconds, and that red car is yours.
18:06Now, remember the clock starts when the first word of each puzzle is revealed.
18:08It stops when you hit that plunger to give me an answer, and it happened to you once where you started to give me an answer before you stopped that plunger, and it is in your hands to stop it.
18:16If you do that, you can do the whole thing before the clock hits double zero, you've got yourself the car.
18:20Are you ready?
18:21I am.
18:21One other admonition.
18:23The next thing up the line after the car is $50,000.
18:26You must win the car in order to come back and try for that $50,000.
18:31All right.
18:31There is a lot at stake.
18:3220 seconds on the clock.
18:34Good luck, Phil.
18:35First puzzle starts now.
18:37Comedian plays Dr. Dan.
18:41Bill Cosby.
18:42Huxtable on television is indeed Bill Cosby.
18:44Yes.
18:4516 seconds.
18:46Got that one very quickly.
18:48Three more before the clock hits double zero.
18:50Let's look at the next puzzle now.
18:53Mountain chain crosses Colorado.
18:58Yes.
18:58Rocky.
18:59Utah and Wyoming is indeed the Rocky.
19:01And you're a little further ahead at the halfway mark.
19:0312 seconds.
19:05Next puzzle starts now.
19:08Movie adventurer.
19:11Paul Hogan.
19:13Yes.
19:13Crocodile Dundee.
19:14Played twice.
19:14Crocodile Dundee is right.
19:16Seven seconds on the clock.
19:18I think if you know it, you've got it.
19:20You've got to get it before the double zero.
19:21If you do, you've got the car.
19:23Good luck for the car.
19:25The next puzzle starts now.
19:28Boy.
19:29Sister.
19:30Jill.
19:32Tumble, yes?
19:32Jack.
19:33You got it.
19:33For the car.
19:35Congratulations.
19:36Tumble down the hill.
19:37Jack and Jill got you a beautiful automobile.
19:40Congratulations.
19:42Phil.
19:42Come on back here.
19:43Let's get you into the car.
19:44Seven.
19:45Want to join it?
19:47Congratulations.
19:48Philip.
19:48Here we go with a couple of keys for you.
19:51Sit down.
19:52Make yourself comfortable.
19:53The car is yours.
19:56How do you feel?
19:57Oh, it's very comfortable.
19:59Phil's got himself a car, and there's a lot more to talk about right after this commercial
20:02timeout.
20:03Don't you do it very well.
20:04Congratulations.
20:06That's amazing.
20:07You can do it.
20:09Oh, it's beautiful.
20:13Oh, it's beautiful.
20:14You like it?

20:15Yeah.
20:17Gorgeous.
20:17That's gorgeous.
20:18It's beautiful.
20:19It's your car.
20:20Now, on a lighter note, remember, on our next show, we start Trick or Treat Week.
20:24It should be a lot of fun.
20:25And on a more serious note, on our next show, Phil tries for this.
20:30$50,000 in cash.
20:33And he'll be back to try for it with $85,344 already on Sail of the Century.
20:40Be with us next time.
20:41Bye for now.
