A precursor to Let’s Make a Deal, this short-lived CBS daytime game show had contestants bring items on stage to swap for unknown prizes ranging from shoelaces to jewellery.
Before the exchange took place, players had to answer a question or perform a stunt to get the prize. Persons who answered two questions correctly and performed a stunt properly won a “super prize.”
Host Lew Parker went on to be the TV dad of Marlo Thomas on That Girl, while Jacqueline Susann (the wife of the show’s producer Irving Mansfield) became the bestselling author of trashy novels like Valley of the Dolls.
