Game Time: Meet the original Harlem Globetrotters (What's My Line?, 1956)

We've previously shown you an installment of To Tell The Truth which featured the early Harlem Globetrotters. Now, let's take you to December 1956, right before New Year's Eve, when the team, as a whole, including coach-owner Abe Saperstein, appeared on What's My Line?. The 'Trotters are in the 1st game.


The 'Trotters were also the subject of a feature film, "Go, Man, Go", starring Dane Clark, before becoming an annual fixture on ABC's Wide World of Sports and landing their first animated series (CBS, 1970).
