We are quoting NaturistDoc and CalTom from another thread, where they provided these priceless artifacts of TV history, where nudists appeared on this popular TV show of the 50s and 60s. If you know of more clips, please add them here.

Far more entertaining was a linked YouTube clip www.youtube.com/watch?v=VlfrcH6DEww&feature=related) of an episode of "What's My Line?" from 1958. The mystery guest was an odd little man who ran a nudist camp in Indiana. The panelists, a shrewd bunch, nailed the guest's occupation rather quickly. But the best part of the show is the panelists themselves. The men (I should say 'gentlemen') are in tuxes; the women are wearing gloves! One panelist was a very youthful Jack Lemmon. Nudist content aside, the clip is a wonderful snapshot of 1950's TV. And who wouldn't have wanted to see Arlene Francis nude?

There was an even earlier What's My Line with nudist "camp" director Yolande Reed that was absolutely priceless. The audience roared with every tingling innuendo from Steve Allen and even host John Day could barely contain himself. However, the reaction from Dorothy Kilgallen when she comes to the realization of the woman's profession is what makes this a real gem.

For a second, I thought that someone was nude on "What's My Line." That would have been something to see. John Daly had enough civility and good taste to have handled it quite gracefully.

There was a new version of "What's My Line" about 10 years ago, hosted by John O'Hurley. At least 3 nudists were on over about a year. They were AANR Executive Director, Erich Schuttauf, then Laguna del Sol office manager Patty Sailors and Bare Necessities Travel & Tour owner Nancy Tiemann. |

These clips are not only a part of TV history, but of nudist history as well. The "Odd little man who ran a nudist camp in Indiana" was none other than Alois Knapp, owner of Zorro Nature Patk, and a well known figure in the history of American Nudism. It is people like Knapp who paved the way for the rest of us to have the right to enjoy nude recreation today.
