Face is Familiar was also in color. GSN has run one episode of it, I believe a couple of others exist in the trade curcuit.[/quote]
Three others, including the pilot hosted by Jack Clark. Oddly, all of the others are in black & white.

According to David Schwartz, who probably has the ticket stubs to back it up, the show was shot at studio 41. I imagine it's possible they shot in more than one location over the course of the summer, which wasn't completely unheard of back then.

As per
Ed Reitan's page, both the Ed and the entire Broadcast Center [including the Studio 41 in question] were colorized in '65. I'm not sure whether or not the other recordings in question are videotape or--more likely--kinescopes.
The TV studio geeks [like me] can notice what sounds like the Ed's distinctive acoustics in
this clip.
