Around the world of Mike Todd

"This hour is a montage of the colorful life and times of showman Mike Todd. In interviews, an array of celebrities, including Elizabeth Taylor (the wife he 'grew up to marry'), remember this 'American original.' Stills and films recall Todd's varied business ventures--huge amusement concessions at the 1939 World's Fair, his bawdy Chicago cafe, a stab at owning a race track, the chaotic televised Madison Square Garden party, and scenes, both behind and on camera, from the star-studded epic Around the world in 80 days"--TV guide, Sept. 8, 1968. Also includes comments by Art Buchwald, Toots Shor, Ethel Merman, Gypsy Rose Lee, Jack E. Leonard.
