Arnold Palmer as a guest star on the show "What's My Line?" from August, 1960. It's amazing the difference in the way sports stars are recognized then and now.

Wow, they didn't even recognize him!

I'm not surprised! TV was still fairly new in 1960 and coverage of golf on tv was rare. Only 3 channels back then as far as I know. Much more boxing and wrestling to be seen then golf.
