For all you guys who are always asking questions about how Muppets are built, there's a poster on eBay of the vintage Muppet Show Cast. Forget the condition of the poster, IT"S THE INFORMATION ON THE BACK!!!

Three detailed pics on the making of a WhatNot. It's a great way for you guys to get an inside look at how scott foam heads are made.

This was from National Geographic WORLD magazine from 1979 (summer, I think) The article included in that magazine had some wonderful TMS behind the scenes pics..including a misleading photo of Richard Hunt holding up Lew Zealand in a group shot..as a kid I thought Richard performed him after seeing that picutre. There are also some great shots of Emett Otter behind the scenes...Faz Fazakas working on Ma and Emett in the boat..and a shot of Frank performing Chuck from under the gang's car..If you can find this issue, its well worth getting..

I'm not much for collecting, but I'm proud to say that I now own this issue and it's on it's way. Thanks for the info. :wink:


Psssst, it's the 1979 August Issue... becareful that you purchase the WORLD magazine and not just the regular one.
