Double Showcase Winners Statistics

Here is a look at the Double Showcase Winners from The Price is Right, albeit incomplete (such as Season 2). The rule was not present until some point between March 8 and April 18, 1974.

Seasons prior to Season 24 (with the exception of Season 20) do not have complete data. All info found here has been taken from the DSW Database Website (http://dswdatabase.proboards.com/). It is not known if there were any Double Showcase Winners from Seasons 4, 7, 16, 17, and 21.

There were no Double Showcase Winners in Season 26, resulting in the new range at the start of Season 27.
