Black and white 8 by 10 press photograph of Shari Lewis with her beloved puppet Lamb Chop, identified by the printed caption along the vertical edge as Lamb Chop's Play-Along on PBS. Shari Lewis was one of the most celebrated American ventriloquists of the twentieth century, and Lamb Chop became one of the most recognized puppet characters in American children's television history, appearing across multiple decades from the 1950s through the 1990s.
The PBS caption confirms this print was produced in connection with Lewis's long-running PBS children's series Lamb Chop's Play-Along, which aired from 1992 until Lewis's death in 1998. Press prints from this series are collectible within both the ventriloquism and American children's television ephemera fields, and Shari Lewis material is among the most actively sought within the ventriloquist collecting community.
