Date Sold 1/13/2019Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Autographed Promotional Card (measures 2 1/4" x 3 1/2") (Learn More) American Bandstand, the 1957 - 1989 musical TV television series hosted by Dick Clark. Clark was a television and radio personality, television producer and film actor, as well as a cultural icon who remains best known for hosting American Bandstand from 1956 to 1989. The show started as a local program in Philadelphia called Bandstand (or Philadelphia Bandstand) in 1952 and Clark took over as the permanent host in 1956, and the show went national as American Bandstand in 1957. The show gave many new music artists their first exposure to national audiences, including Ike & Tina Turner, Smokey Robinson and the Miracles, Stevie Wonder, Simon & Garfunkel, Iggy Pop, Prince, Talking Heads, and Madonna. Clark also hosted five incarnations of the Pyramid game show from 1973 to 1988 and Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve, which transmitted New Year's Eve celebrations in New York City's Times Square. He passed away in 2012 at the age of 82. Important Added Info: Note that this item has been personally autographed (signed) by Dick Clark (he signed it on the back; there is also a facsimile signature within the printing on the front of the card)! Exactly when is this promo card from? It is hard to say, but American Bandstand was not named that until 1957, but it had been on Channel 6 since 1950, and we don't think he would have been using promo cards for Channel 6 after 1960, so we think this is surely from 1957 to 1959 (especially judging by his super youthful appearance!). If anyone knows more about when this is from, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Our consignor is a longtime memorabilia dealer who has purchased autographs several times over the past 30 years, and he feels certain that this signature is authentic.
