READ MY LIPS
I was watching MASK (1985)--the movie with Cher, not Jim Carey--again. Cher says:
Read my lips, Rocky! No!
This predates George Bush's "Read my lips! No new taxes!" of 1988. FWIW to Fred Shapiro.

HIGHBALL
I believe the earliest I found was 1895, with a possibility to 1888, as cited again here.
