Three puppets used by the comedy ventriloquist and children's entertainer Shari Lewis. Lewis and her sock puppet companions were first introduced to television in March 1956 on the family show Captain Kangaroo, but in 1960 she received her own spot on NBC called The Shari Lewis Show. Throughout her career, Lewis was accompanied by a sweet and gentle puppet called Lamb Chop, along with various other characters, such as Charlie Horse, Hush Puppy and Wing Ding.

This set includes Hush Puppy, an unknown brown dog, and the iconic Lamb Chop. Each is made from a sock, with button eyes, felt tongue and ears, and stuffed arms and legs. The puppets show light tears and loose stitching, but they remain in excellent condition. These particular puppets were previously gifted back to the family of the maker. Dimensions (each): 40 cm x 12 cm x 12 cm (15 3/4" x 4 3/4" x 4 3/4")

Estimate: £2,000 - 3,000 M
