*Video: Mike Wallace and Bob Feller

April 7, 2008

From Feller to Clemens, the ageless newsman has bridged the generations of great pitchers. This segment appeared on Wallace’s interview program, originally broadcast on CBS August 4, 1957. The observant viewer will note the (now) hilarious (and anachronistic) introduction at the top of the program: “I’m Mike Wallace. The cigarette is Phillip Morris.”
