Muppet Central News - New behind-the-scenes book to celebrate Fraggle Rock

Insight Editions is a publishing company known for creating unique art and photography books that celebrate iconic artists, films, television series and other entertainment franchises. Their award-winning collector's books have covered such topics as the art of Star Wars, Shrek, Hannah-Barbara, and Brian Froud.

Several sources at Insight Editions have informed me that the company is planning to release a deluxe book on the art and magic of "Jim Henson’s Fraggle Rock" and, after talking to several representatives at Insight Editions, here's some early information on this release.

The book will showcase the art, magic and vision of Jim Henson's beloved series by celebrating and showcasing the unique and imaginative world of Fraggle Rock. This book will include hundreds of rare drawings, concept artwork, storyboard images, production photos, and other treasures from the studio archives and private collections. This giant "coffee table book" will be a visual feast for any Fraggle fan. The book is said to include hundreds of beautiful color illustrations, photos and artwork from the making of Fraggle Rock along with behind-the-scenes comments, notes and other insights.

The gigantic hardcover book will retail for around $34.95 and will quickly become a prized possession of any Fraggle fan. The Fraggle Rock collector's book is now available for pre-order for only $23.07. More details on this comprehensive book are sure to surface as the release of draws closer.

This beautiful book is planned to hit store shelves on September 30, 2008, just around the same time that the final season of Fraggle Rock makes its way onto DVD.

Other fan-favorite Henson collector's books over the years include Jim Henson The Works (1993), Of Muppets and Men (1981), Sesame Street Unpaved (1998) and Jim Henson's Creature Shop No Strings Attached (1997).
