Dick Clark, known widely as "America's oldest teenager," single-handedly formed the culture of the day on American Bandstand, and helped give rise to rock 'n' roll. He was a man of many roles: an entrepreneur, producer, game-show host and much more. It didn't feel like New Year's Eve in America if you weren't watching Dick Clark count down the minutes. The statistics are staggering; Bandstand brought in 40 million viewers a day when the country's population wasn't even 200 million and when many people were at work-one might size that up to airing a Super Bowl every day! However, Dick Clark's influence transcended the music. Against dissent, he integrated the dance floor and gave Baby Boomer America a daily vision of what a non-segregated society could be; early guests on his show included Chuck Berry and James Brown, as well as Jerry Lee Lewis and the Everly Brothers. Clark even made television an interactive pastime by reaching out to his viewers and getting them to call in and say what they thought about the couple of the day, or the song. This made Bandstand the progenitor of much of today's TV culture-shows like American Idol, The Voice and Dancing with the Stars. Dick Clark was also a friend of LIFE's; in this book, we bring back an earlier LIFE piece in which he reminiscences about the exciting early days of rock 'n' roll. He was a legend who introduced us to other legends, and for that, he will always be remembered.

This package was shipped rather quickly, and was a rather big surprise at having already arrived. The packaging was a bit crude, but it was very well held together and quite sturdy. It came just as it appeared in the picture and it felt splendid to have something from a favorite movie to always be near. The price for was quite nice as well, not a single penny was wasted. All together I would say this was a rather pleasant experience and the start of more purchases from this seller and website.

Item exactly as described, securely packed & combined shipping. Seller went the extra step to refund a small difference between a seasonal sale & combined shipping with a second premium item (payment system couldn't combine after sale discount). Appreciate that courtesy small cost adjustment - makes eBay a preferred shopping destination. Seller added to my watchlist, buy with confidence!
