They share the stage with all our favourite artists and some have become iconic in their own right! The first prop was used in 1957 at the second edition of the Eurovision Song Contest. That year, Margot Hielscher took a telephone with her on stage for her song 'Telefon, Telefon'. Since then, we have seen everything from hamster wheels to pianos on fire. Here's an overview of several memorable props over the years.
