     Document 182858

MERV GRIFFIN. Photograph inscribed and signed: "To Donald/Best Wishes/Merv/Griffin". B/w, 8x10. Griffin launched The Merv Griffin Show, a daily, hour-long NBC talk show in 1962, which was the beginning of his long foray into the chat-show world. He voluntarily called it quits in 1986. That same year, he sold his Merv Griffin Enterprises to Coca-Cola for a whopping $250 million. Thanks to this deal, to his nurturing of such game-show properties as Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy, and to his management of numerous casinos, hotels and resorts in both LA and Las Vegas, Merv Griffin may well close out the 20th century as the wealthiest entertainer/entrepreneur on earth.
