Title: Who's That Announcer?
Post by: Don Howard on December 10, 2004, 08:08:17 AM

In my recently acquired copy of a 90 minute video about game shows of the 1950s and 1960s (which includes segments of a multi-tied Tic Tac Dough match shown out of sequence), a few minutes of the Edgar Bergen-hosted Do You Trust Your Wife? are shown. The announcer is shown on camera to tell us the couple's score. Who is that announcer?

Not seeing your particular tape, but having seen other episodes - if he's a slightly older looking gent with rich tones, you may have the classic Allstate Insurance pitchman, Ed Reimers (You're in good hands with Allstate). Later, radio and tv announcer Bob Lamond handled some of the chores.
