Theremin on "I've Got a Secret" (1966)

2008-02-09 by ldahlke

This is my first post to the group (yes, I'm on the woo-woo list)!  I
have appreciated the information from this community.  It is encouraging
to hear that people are getting out and performing on these challenging
instruments.

And bravo to David V. and all of the performers on Spellbound Radio.  I
would not have believed that a 2-hour weekly program of theremin music
would be possible, but the talent of the performers and the diversity of
music make it an impressive program.  It keeps me practicing.

I digress.  My main reason to post was something I stumbled on today
from a Classic TV Blog.  In case you haven't seen this on YouTube, check
out this 6-minute clip from "I've Got A Secret" 1966)
<http://classicshowbiz.blogspot.com/2008/02/whats-my-line-with-guest-the\
remin-1966.html>  .  It's a hoot.

My question - does anyone know who manufactured the theremin in the
video?  I grant that I am new to the theremin world, but I haven't seen
one quite like this before.  Not sure what he meant when he said "you
can't buy it"  Any ideas?
