Quick on the Draw was an American game show that aired on the now-defunct DuMont Television Network.
Quick on the Draw featured cartoonist Bob Dunn, was first hosted by Eloise McElhone (1921-1974) and then by Robin Chandler, and aired from January 18, 1952, to December 9, 1952. Dunn would draw sketches that celebrity panelists would try to identify.
The show started as a local (non-network) show May 27, 1950, and while on the DuMont network, aired Tuesdays at 9:30 pm EST.
McElhone also a panelist on the ABC game show Think Fast and on the NBC/ABC show Leave It to the Girls, and hosted the DuMont-WABD series Eloise Salutes the Stars.
