39 years ago today, KFWB morning man Wink Martindale officially joins the game show biz by becoming host of NBC's What's This Song. Now if only some episodes of THIS show turned up on the trading circuit!

Cordially,

Well, since a WTS? clip (in color, no less!) turned up in the opening moments of Wink's 1987 syndie special The GS Biz, there might very well be at least one ep still in existence...
