00:00...to play forever on Game Show Network.
00:03You're watching Game Show Network.
00:12Tonight, these four people need to compete for the prizes of a lifetime on...
00:19The Price is Right.
00:21Presented by...
00:22Spydell, makers of watch bands for him or her.
00:26Spydell photo items and Spydell couplink anti-clip sets.
00:31And now, your host on The Price is Right, Bill Collins.
00:43Thank you all very briefly.
00:47Hello.
00:49Welcome.
00:51Welcome to The Price is Right.
00:52Say, that brings to mind this fact just a little bit later on tonight's Price is Right program.
00:57We're going to announce the winner of the fabulous World's Fair Showcase.
01:02So you stick around.
01:03The winner might very well be you.
01:05Now, real quickly, if we may, let's say hello to four nice people.
01:08First of all, our defending champion, back for her second consecutive week,
01:11Mrs. Jewel Blazing Game, a housewife from Baytown, Texas.
01:15Thus far, $12,754 worth of merchandise.
01:24Jewel, are the folks in Baytown excited about you?
01:27Well, I don't know those folks in Baytown are just as excited as I am,
01:32and that is saying a whole lot.
01:33Not only that, the ones in Houston and Galveston have even called me excited, Bill.
01:38I just had the time of my life this week.
01:41Well, we're very happy, and we're glad you helped solidify Texas.
01:44Not that it needed it terribly, I'll tell you that.
01:46Mr. Robert Drumheiser, a locomotive fireman from Harrisburg, PA.
01:51How long have you been a railroad man, Bob?
01:53Well, Bill, I've been on the railroad for 16 years now.
01:56I started by firing on a steam locomotive, and now I'm up and I'm firing on an electric locomotive.
02:02I see.
02:02Where do you run, incidentally?
02:04My run is from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, to New York.
02:07Uh-huh.
02:08That's the trip of how long?
02:09I'm away from home about two days at a time.
02:11Well, that's not too bad.
02:12Let's say hello to Mrs. Wendy Fenwick, a housewife from Ketuit, Massachusetts, a place that I know well.
02:17What does your husband do?
02:18He's in the airport, Bill.
02:19In the airport?
02:20And stationed at Otis, Cape Cod.
02:21Oh, yes.
02:22Are you English, incidentally?
02:23Yes, I am, though.
02:24I'm planning on taking my citizenship papers out next October.
02:27Have you, in your travels in Ketuit, Massachusetts, met a very wonderful lady up there by the name of Mary Olive White?
02:33Well, I haven't actually met her, but we go to the same church.
02:37She was the greatest schoolteacher that anybody ever had, and she was mine.
02:41So when you get back, give her my personal regards, will you?
02:43Because I don't think there's anyone alive nicer than Miss White is, and I mean that sincerely.
02:47Now then, Mr. Earl Garrity, a traveling auditor from New Orleans, Louisiana.
02:51You know, I just thought I should have made that speech when I was in school and could have gotten the marks.
02:55Mr. Garrity, what are you doing your job?
02:58I work for a wonderful fruit company, and to perform my duties, I have to travel from Canada to Florida, on the East Coast,
03:05and from California to Washington on the West Coast.
03:09You sort of bracket the country. Are you a married man?
03:12Yes, I am. I have a wonderful wife, two children, and seven lovely grandchildren.
03:17You really are married.
03:18Now, to start each of you off, on the right foot in front of each of you is a gift package from Spydell.
03:23It has in there a set of men's and ladies' watch bands, photo items, and a match set of men's jewelry.
03:28Just take them and put them down on the ledge there behind the panel, and we'll get going.
03:32Now then, if you're all ready, so are we. Let's play The Price is Right.
03:34I think you all know how it works. You bid for the merchandise we present.
03:38It goes to the person who bids the highest without going over the actual retail price.
03:42At the end of the show, the big winner gets a chance to come back.
03:45Next week, take on three new challengers, and as long as you win, you can keep coming back.
03:49Understood?
03:49If you are ready, so are we.
03:52Watch those draperies to the extreme left, and let's see the first item Spydell puts up for bids on The Price is Right.
03:57And here we go.
04:02One of you is about to become the owner of this Barkley Roadster, a new sleek sports car design imported from England.
04:11It's powered by an Excelsior air-cooled twin-cylinder two-stroke engine and rides up to 60 miles on a gallon of gasoline.
04:18It has a 16-inch steering wheel, three forward speeds and reverse, and powerful hydraulic brakes.
04:24This exciting Barkley economy sports car will be fun for you to own and drive, if the price is right.
04:32Price Authority, Barkley Coachworks, Bedfordshire, England.
04:37Thank you, Dawn. Someone's going to look real chic in that.
04:39Mrs. Blassingame, will you give me an opening bid, please, ma'am?
04:41Oh, Bill, I've been wanting one of those for five years, and I've just got to have that, Bill.
04:46All right, start the bidding off, and let's see how well you do.
04:49Oh, dear. Oh, Bill. $750.
04:52$750. Opening bid of $750 to Mr. Drumheiser.
04:55Oh, my.
04:55Well, Bill, I'll bid $875.
05:01$875 to you, Ms. Fenwick.
05:03$900.
05:04$900. This is a $100 minimum bid, and it's my fault for not telling you, so what we'll do, we'll give you another chance.
05:09$875 is top. You have to bid at least $100 over this.
05:12$975.
05:13Thank you very much. Mr. Garrity.
05:15I'll bid $1,200.
05:16$1,200, and back to our Champion, Ms. Blassingame.
05:19I am going to bid $1,550 on that.
05:26$1550 to you, Mr. Drumheiser.
05:29Well, Bill.
05:33Very few locomotive firemen go to work in those, I'll tell you.
05:36Give you five more seconds.
05:38That would be nice to go to work in.
05:39Sure would.
05:40What is the highest bid, $1,500?
05:42$1,550.
05:45I'll bid $1,650.
05:47Thank you to you, Mrs. Fenwick.
05:50Oh, $1,715.
05:52Thank you, Mr. Garrity.
05:54Well, I freeze.
05:58Freeze there.
05:59There are three left in the game.
06:00Ms. Blassingame, you're $1,550, top of $1,750, and it's your bid.
06:05I'm going to freeze on it.
06:06Freeze there.
06:06There are two of you left in the game, the middle of the line there.
06:09You are $1,650, Mr. Drumheiser, top $1,750.
06:13I'll have to freeze, though.
06:14The bidding ends.
06:15It's all over.
06:16From left to right, we'll run them down for you.
06:18$1,550, $1,650, $1,750, and $1,200.
06:24And over there, the sports car, it has Tony in it.
06:27She does not go with it.
06:28And in here, the actual retail price.
06:33It is $1,595, the winner, our champion, Mrs. Blassingame.
06:42It is you.
06:43There you are.
06:43Go right over there.
06:44You're very welcome.
06:46You're welcome.
06:48Well, I'm willing to believe you can't, Mrs. Blassingame.
06:51You've got a bonus.
06:53I'm very welcome, Mrs. Blassingame.
06:55Well, now, you sit down there because last week you damaged several contestants.
06:58Now, Mrs. Blassingame, I wonder, you said you've been wanting one of these for five years.
07:05I wonder, have you ever driven a Barkley sports car?
07:07A Barkley?
07:08What is that?
07:09That's the thing you've been wanting for five years.
07:14I'd like to leave now.
07:15Maybe we can get somewhere.
07:16Oh, all right.
07:17Now, in case you have never driven one, you just relax and leave the driving, let the driving, to your own chauffeur.
07:26There you are.
07:27Thank you very much.
07:28Something else she's been wanting for the past five years.
07:31Now, I think it's safe to say that you own the only chauffeur-driven sports car in America.
07:36But let me add this now.
07:38If the neighbors think a chauffeured sports car is a little too pretentious, you can go to and from the supermarket every morning in this bonus.
07:47There it is over there.
07:48Oh, thank you.
07:50A Rolls Royce.
07:54Mr. Brown, Mr. Brown, would you start it up?
07:59Just listen.
08:00When Mr. Brown, the chauffeur, starts this up, just listen to this engine purr.
08:03Mr. Brown, if you would, please, sir.
08:04It's a beautiful, quiet, very quiet, very quiet.
08:12Come on, Mr. Brown.
08:13I'll have to find you if you don't do better.
08:16Did you ever hear an engine that quiet?
08:18They don't make them like that today.
08:19You know, they just started right up.
08:22All right, Mr. Brown.
08:23Nice job.
08:24And I'll see you in the grease rack a little bit later on.
08:27Anyway, congratulations.
08:29We just had the engine overhauled.
08:31We did.
08:32And here you are.
08:33The very best of everything to you from The Price is Right.
08:35There you go.
08:37I used to hate this.
08:39All right, now, we are ready with the next item.
08:44And here it is.
08:46We want each of you to take a good look and then pass it on down.

21:49I'll freeze.
21:50I'll freeze.
21:51You want to freeze?
21:52I'll freeze.
21:53And Mr. Garrity, that leaves you down the end as the top man, and naturally, you're not
21:57going out.
21:58I'll freeze.
21:59So, you're at seventy-one hundred, and that stops the bidding.
22:01Now, before we open the envelope with the price, let me run down the bidding for you
22:04again.
22:05We have $7,000 from our champion, $4,100 from our railroader, Mr. Drumheiser, $7,000 from
22:12Mrs. Fenwick, and $7,100 from Mr. Garrity.
22:15So, we have two winners, Mrs. Blassingame and Fenwick, two non-winners, Mr. Drumheiser
22:20and Mr. Garrity.
22:21So, you men, I don't know, and I honestly don't know the retail value, but I got it in
22:25here.
22:26So, if you are ready, so am I.
22:29And please do not think I am delaying deliberately.
22:36Actual retail value, $5,145.40, Mr. Drumheiser, our railroader.
