Looking for a copy of an Eye Guess home game, I stumbled upon this pic of Bill Cullen on the show's set (http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-NBC-Transparency-Slide-TV-Gameshow-Eye-Guess-/130361124012?pt=Art_Photo_Images&hash=item1e5a20e4ac). The seller also had some other game show slides for sale:

Odd that this appears to be the only one of his game show auctions that's offering TWO slides, unless having Larry Blyden in that same set was a mistake of some sort. I have a scan of the exact picture that's being offered from the Eye Guess set.

Most likely, that's not a game show at all but an NBC variety show, possibly Dean Martin. CNR did a lot more than game shows, you know.
Hit the "other items" link and you'll find this guy has a load of interesting NBC stuff, including some neat caricatures from back in the radio days. At least one of them is a game show too.

"If you think this is going to be about game shows, you're in the wrong place." -- CNR on The Life of Reilly. He didn't talk much about Dean Martin, either. He once said (not from the movie) that he was driving home from a Dean Martin rehearsal one night in a convertible, his script blew away, and after thinking about it for a second, said to himself "what's the point", and continued on.
I wonder if the slide could also be from when he hosted The Golddiggers?

Drawing from that, and what looks to be a Union Jack in the top right, it may be from The Golddiggers in London.
By the way, if you haven't gotten The Life of Reilly DVD yet, it's a force to be reckoned with. A 2-disc set with not only the (jolly) theatrical film, but also a taping of the full 3-hr stage show. I mean, just FYI.
