PEGGY LEE
An AFTRA contract for Lee's appearance on The Perry Como Show for the
sum of $7,000
Contract signed: "Peggy Lee", 1p, 8½x11, with attached rider
(4p, 8½x11). New York, N.Y., 1956 March 1. Standard AFTRA contract with
Roncom Productions, Inc. for Lee's appearance on the Perry Como television show,
1956 April 21. Signed on p1. Also initialed "P.L." on each page of
rider. Lee agrees to appear as a guest star and to attend rehearsals for
$7,000.00 net. The rider is a standard addition for "star and featured
performers." Peggy Lee (1920-2002), the singer whose smoky, insinuating
voice in such songs as "Is That All There Is" and "Fever" made her a jazz and
pop legend, was also instrumental in the success of the 1955 Disney
cartoon feature Lady and the Tramp. She not only provided several
of the character voices (including the Siamese Cats and dog pound vamp, Peg),
she also wrote many of the film's songs. Lee's biggest hit was "Manana (Is
Soon Enough for Me)", a number one hit in 1948. Her vocal flexibility and cool,
breathy voice brought sultry distinction to big band showstoppers, pop ballads
and soulful laments. Slightly soiled. Staple holes and paperclip impressions at
upper left corner. Otherwise, fine condition. This image has been censored to
