Chance of a Lifetime (TV, 1955)

Tonight, a special announcement by Old Gold. The most important announcement in the history of Old Gold Cigarette. Old Cigarette presents Chance of a Lifetime, starring Dennis James. Yes, Chance of a Lifetime, the shows at each week select three finalists from among the thousands and thousands of young professional entertainers seen throughout the entire country, and award them...

them, an all-expense trip to New York with a stay at the Glamour's Hotel Roseville, an opportunity with Universal International Pictures, a tryout with Columbia record, and to further their professional career $1,000 in cash, and as a final big step to start them, an engagement at the Million Dollar Show spot, the internationally famous Latin

quarter in the heart of Broadway's Great White Way. Yes, it's truly the chance of a lifetime. Oh, blocking by. Oh, and now here he is, young talent's best friend, Dennis James. Friends, I'm excited tonight because just a few days ago was my privilege to announce the greatest of that in the history of whole gold cigarettes.

In 1926, old gold was first introduced and became an overnight taste sensation. In 1930, old gold was the first cigarette in the world to offer the cellophane wrapper. In 1938, the famous old gold tear tape pioneered by old golds today enjoyed by 60 million smokers.

And remember, old gold is always pioneered in good common sense advertising. But tonight it's my honor to introduce to you the crowning taste treat of all. In a few minutes the most important announcement in old gold history.

But now let's get on with a chance of a lifetime. Here is our first act.
