Need A Lift Dinah?

Need A Lift Dinah?

In a 1952 episode of the twice weekly, 15 minute ‘Dinah Shore Show’, our star hitches a ride on a Panoram dolly with an extra sideboard.

In ’56, Shore began hosting a monthly series of one-hour full-color spectaculars as part of NBC’s ‘The Chevy Show’ series. These proved so popular that the show was renamed The Dinah Shore Chevy Show the following season, with Shore becoming the full-time host, helming three out of four weeks in the month.

Broadcast live and in NBC’s famous ‘Living Color,’ this variety show was one of the most popular of the 1950s and early 1960s. ‘The Dinah Shore Chevy Show’ ran through the 1961-1962 season, after which Chevrolet dropped sponsorship, and Shore hosted a series of monthly broadcasts simply called ‘The Dinah Shore Show.’ Over twelve seasons, from 1951 to 1963, Dinah Shore made 125 hour-long programs and 444 fifteen-minute shows.
