Description
Presented is Cher’s contract for an appearance on, “Shindig!” television show dated, June 30, 1965. The one page contract was signed by Cher in blue ballpoint (“10”) on the back of the last page. It was placed in a display alongside a photograph of the superstar. The display measures 23″ x 28″.
Shindig! was conceived as a short-notice replacement for Hootenanny, a series which specialized in folk revival music. The folk revival had fizzled in 1964 as the result of the British Invasion, which damaged the ratings for Hootenanny and prompted that show’s cancellation. Shindig! focused on a broader variety of popular music than its predecessor and first aired for a half-hour every Wednesday evening, but was expanded to an hour in January 1965. In the fall of 1965, the show split into two half-hour telecasts, on Thursday and Saturday nights.
Cher is the only solo artist with Billboard number-one singles in seven consecutive decades, from the 1960s to the 2020s. Her accolades include an Academy Award, a Primetime Emmy Award, a Grammy Award, three Golden Globe Awards, the Billboard Icon Award, the Kennedy Center Honor and an induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
