Pathetic..I might even give the guy a pass for misspelling Kitty's last name, but he had the wrong show..The others'-No excuse for not doing a little research..

Everybody knows Steve Allen's wife was named Betsy Myerson. And the To Tell the Truth panelist spelt her name with a "C": Citty Carlisle.

(That's a nice picture of Citty.)

If there's a greater gift than somebody who sells a photo for an inflated price, and posts a full-sized, not-watermarked scan of said photo in the auction description, I'd like to hear about it.

I expect to see a picture from this guy of Chuck Woolery, longtime host of Wheel of Fortune.

The same seller has several autographed items from celebrities who have had GS appearances, including Kitty Carlisle (spelled right this time), Rose Marie, Arte Johnson, Gavin McLeod, Rita Moreno and Nanette Fabray.  There could be others.   Assuming these are genuine (anyone can print a COA!) they seem reasonably priced to me although I know next to nothing about the topic.

Many of the autographs are from people I've never heard of, and so much for celebrity I guess.

Not to mention an equally high-quality scan of the back of the photo, which is valuable for purposes of reference.
