I recently had the opportunity to visit The Museum of the Moving Image in Astoria, New York. It’s home to the Jim Henson Exhibition, which I had been excited to see since before it opened. This was my main reason for the visit, but the Museum has much more to see the Jim Henson Exhibit is more or less set up chronologically. It begins with Henson’s early work in advertising and corporate training films, early versions of some familiar faces appear in some of these, which is quite amusing. Rowlf on The Jimmy Dean Show and Kermit on Sam and Friends were some of the first appearances of The Muppets as we know and love them.
