Baseball Hall of Fame Relief Pitcher
Rollie Fingers Featured in New Vlog

The Quigley Corporation Offers Sports Fans Funny,
Quirky Anecdotes of America's Favorite Pastime

DOYLESTOWN, PA. - July 12, 2006 - Doylestown, PA - July 12, 2006 - The name is familiar to baseball fans who fondly recall the man with the signature handlebar mustache standing on the pitching mound.

The Quigley Corporation (Nasdaq: QGLY) today announced that Rollie Fingers, one of the most celebrated relief pitchers of all time, will be featured on its new Vlog, www.RolliesFollies.com, offering sports fans around the world personal anecdotes and memories of Rollie's career, along with special guest appearances by other noteworthy athletes.

Think you know what is talked about during a trip to the mound? Curious about locker room practical jokes? Five days a week Rollie will keep visitors entertained with tales about his early days, road trip fun, bullpen antics, superstitions, adventures at autograph signings, as well as poignant tales and personal revelations including relationships with teammates, coaches, fans and family. Viewers will gain insight into the man behind the moustache.

The Vlog will also offer sports enthusiasts information on treating everyday aches and pains associated with an active lifestyle with PainGoes®, a new Over-the-Counter pain relieving spray being test marketed by the Quigley Corporation. PainGoes® provides temporary relief of minor aches and pains of muscles and joints associated with arthritis, simple backache, strains, bruises and sprains. It is virtually odorless, non-greasy and does not burn when either sprayed on, or gently rubbed into skin and allowed to dry.

"While Vlogs tend to target a younger audience, a baseball Hall of Fame great with an animated personality will appeal to sports fans of all ages," said Charles A. Phillips, Chief Operations Officer, Quigley Corporation. "Vlogs are a new and exciting approach to conventional advertising that are entertaining and informative. We're ahead of the game by riding the edge of technology."

In addition to the stories, interviews and treatment information, www.RolliesFollies.com offers site visitors an opportunity to sign up for a sweepstakes for a chance to win a trip to attend a regular-season baseball game with Rollie, an autographed bat or an autographed baseball.
