Lamb Chop 24" Plush 1963 Shari Lewis HTF






For auction I have a large Lamb Chop plush (she is not a puppet).She is nearly 24" tall and was made in 1993 for Shari Lewis enterprise by Direct Connect International and Amerawell Products Inc. This is such a fun and adorable find for any Shari Lewis or Lamb Chop fan!
 
In 1952, Lewis and her puppetry won first prize on "Arthur Godfrey's Talent Scouts" television show. In March 1956, Shari and Lamb Chop were on Captain Kangaroo and later that year she had her own show, "Shariland," on local TV (first WPIX, later WRCA), which ran through 1958. She graduated to network television in 1960 as host and puppeteer of The Shari Lewis Show on NBC, taking the slot vacated by "Howdy Doody". The programs featured such characters as Hush Puppy, Charlie Horse, Lamb Chop, and Wing Ding. Lamb Chop, who was little more than a sock with eyes, served as a sassy alter-ego for Shari. Subsequent television programs introduced these characters.
 
Shari Lewis was as American ventriloquist, puppeteer, and children's television show host, most popular during the 1960s and 1990s. She is best known as the children's television show host. She is bestknown as the original puppeteer of Lamb Chop, first appearing on Hi Mom, a local morning show that aired on WNBC in New York.
 
Shari Lewis has won numerous awards during her lifetime, including:
  • 12 Emmy Awards
  • Peabody Award (1960)
  • John F. Kennedy Center Award for Excellence and Creativity (1983)
  • 7 Parents' Choice Awards
  • Action for Children's Television Award
  • 1995 American Academy of Children's Entertainment award for Entertainer of the Year
Tush tag reads "Direct Connect Int'l/Amerawell Products Ltd. 1993 Shari Lewis Enterprises, Inc. New Materials/100% Polyester. Item No. 70189." From a smoke-free home.
 
MEASUREMENTS: Approximately 24" tall, from toes to head.
 
CONDITION: In fine played with condition. No rips, fraying or spots.
