Fun Videos with Dali

1968 Ad with Dali


Salvador Dali as guest star on What's My Line?  This was a popular 1950's game show in which a panel of blindfolded culture pundits would try to guess the contestant's line of work or identity by asking 10 yes-or-no questions.  The contestant won if they failed to guess correctly.  Over the show's 17-year run, nearly every iconic cultural standout of the era, from pop stars to presidents, appeared as a mystery guest.  The episode with Dali is considered one of the top must-sees.  Other famous episodes starred Alfred Hitchcock, Eleanor Roosevelt, and Lucille Ball.  There's a weird ad at the beginning with a dancing woman.  To skip it, start 15 seconds in.
