Sigh on the curtain says Desoto Plymouth dealers. Groucho also mentions them in the begining.

Groucho
"Two people in the act and I get third billing..."
That is Classic Groucho.

The Mexican guy was an actor, if you didn't figure it out, but it's still hysterical.

"You Bet your Life" was the title.
George Fenneman was the sidekick. My favorite line from the show when Groucho was talking to a farmer and his family, which had 12 children. Groucho says "I like smoking my cigar, but I take it out of my mouth once in a while" Pretty risqué stuff for the 1950"s.....

I read where Groucho himself said that he never said that. A lot of places always 'quoted' that, but no where can anyone find where he did say it.  Unfortunately, where we lived, we could only get 2 stations on TV. And his show was one of them. Now, Red Skelton, he was good.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
