‘I’ve Got A Secret’…Tour Of CBS Studio 59, June 17, 1959

Fifty five years ago this week, ‘I’ve Got A Secret’ was celebrating it’s seventh anniversary on the air at CBS. To mark the occasion, Garry Moore takes us on a tour of The Mansfield Theater, better known to us as CBS Studio 59 at 256 West 47th Street. As you’ll see, CBS Studio 62, The Biltmore Theater is across the street at 261 West 47th Street. Enjoy and share!

    Very kewl find. Brook Atkinson Theater is the name of the “Studio” today. and the Biltmore across the street suffered, suffered sever fire damage in 1987 and was reconstructed by the Manhattan Theatre Club and is now the Samuel J. Friedman Theatre. 🙂

    Cute that he gets free cigarettes, and would often smoke on the air. Not cute that he later got throat cancer.
