A ticket to a pilot called All For one filmed in 1978 for CBS. Bob Banner Associates was the production company listed; Gary Collins was the host (the same guy that did the commercials for those beds a few years ago)? Does anyone know anything about this pilot?
Ticket to the (I believe) one-time FOX special King of the Mountain.
Supposedly, a bonus envelope and prize card from the most recent version of Hollywood Squares.
Knickerbocker Arena promotional magazine featuring the Double Dare live tour. Signed by Marc and Robin.
Tickets to the short lived Musical Chairs. Also, tickets to the Gary Owens hosted Gong Show, The Neighbors, and another obscurity, Stumpers!
Something Mr. Johnson may be interested in...an Iowa TV Guide from 1963, features a game show story on the cover.
Finally, a ticket to Break the Bank from 1951, as recorded on ABC Radio.

Gary Collins? Why that's Mr. Mary Ann Mobley! He's probably the bed guy. He also hosted the successful "Hour Magazine" for a number of years in the late 70s-early 80s. I wish I knew about the pilot.

Two of those Stumpers tickets come from an episode taped five months before the premiere...

I'm guess those are for the pilot, since I wouldn't think they'd film episodes that far in advance.

Must be from the short-lived 60 sec. Q&A endgame, judging by the season 3-4 logo on the envelope and the amount on the card ($4K).

Ticket to the (I believe) one-time FOX special King of the Mountain.


It was supposed to be a series, paired with a renewed "Family Double Dare" during the time of a WGA strike in the late 80s--however, the affiliates, who were looking for any reason to bolt from the Fox network during an unstable time in their history, started complaining that they did not want prime time game shows. So Fox rescinded the orders for "Family DD" and "King of the Mountain." Don't know if any episodes were actually taped or not of "King."

It seems to me that what got on the schedule was a newsmagazine (before there was such a thing as Fox News) called "The Reporters," produced by the "Current Affair" people, and what has now become that Fox institution "America's Most Wanted."

I thought the producers of FDD themselves pulled away from FOX, after the latter wanted them to make special episodes featuring cheerleaders & the like. Or was that a seperate factor altogether?

Rats. Why couldn't that auction have come up before Christmas, or even Valentine's Day.

Couple follow-ups:

Since there's a lot of Peter Tomarken fans on board, a ticket to the short-lived Hit Man from a 1982 taping.
Also, this show didn't ring a bell: Meet Your Mother In Law starring Ross Schafer.
And, a ticket to Cash Explosion, hosted by Jim Perry; listed as a Mark Goodson pilot in 1993.

The guy has a lot of other rare-ish game show tix, including

"A Fly on the Wall"....Mark Goodson production hosted by Gordon Elliot in 1995? I thought TKO was the last one of the Goodson productions?

What strikes me as odd about the date on that ticket (Oct 23, 1982) is that the show didn't go on the air until Jan 3, 1983. Usually things weren't taped that far in advance. I wonder if this was the pilot...

No production company mention and Barris didn't tape at TV City very often, but could it be an attempt to revive "How's Your Mother-in-Law?" Yeah, Barris said it was a bomb, but it seems to me that he'd sold the company and run off to the Riviera by 1987 and the new guys may've wanted to try the format again.
