The Henson Legacy

My son recently saw on this blog the collection of puppets I posted a while back and I will never hear the end of it if I don't post the recent additions to the paper bag family. So, while the first post was for out of town family, this one is for you little man.

Various Sesame Street characters including: our original Cookie Monster (once believed MIA and which my son demanded be in the picture), the Amazing Mumford, Rodeo Rosie, Zoe and Little Murray Sparkles.

The remaining three Yo Gabba Gabba characters.
Regis Faller's Polo and Pa Gorg (Fraggle Rock).

More Muppet Show alumni: Gonzo, Animal, Wanda and Janice. I'll be tempted to break down and do Floyd Pepper for myself if I get no requests soon just to have all the Electric Mayhem gang.


Muppet Show monsters: Sweetums, Timmy, Mean Mama, Behemoth and Thog.

There you have it.

Intermission Part 1- Bagging it

Things are coming along but they are coming along sooooo s-l-o-w-l-y thanks to obligations and getting my little man readjusted to school. I have tons of boxer sketches to show but I promised myself to up the ante before I posted more of those.


So instead I decided I'd show a few sets of paper bag puppet collaborations with my kids before they crumble to dust. Several of these show the heavy battle scars of packing tape and some have been played with so much that they are the consistency of tissue paper. This way I have evidence that I wasn't a completely bad pop. Right?

Sesame street. The Frazzle puppet (lower right) is the oldest I think- about 4 years.

More Sesame Street. Little Jerry and the Monotones with Telly and Oscar.

My daughter's princesses.

Miscellaneous paper characters- Human Torch, Hello Kitty, multi colored Foofa, Toodee, just a dog.
