According to Muppet Wiki, The Original Herry Puppet(I think with the Fuzzy Blue Nose and not the non-Fuzzy one) would be used for the Big Bad Wolf as seen on one of Kermit's Interviews (Although I Remember Seeing him on an Ernie and BErt Sketch).

The Herry-style wolf was seen on Sesame Street News Flash skits until the mid-80s. Just go to Youtube and seach "sesame wolf" and you'll see. The Big Bad Wolf DID appear on an Ernie and Bert skit, the one with Ernie's disguise kit. But the book version had Frazzle in place of the Big Bad Wolf. I wonder why?

I know they changed the wolf's appearance around 1987 or 1988, making him the purple version we know today. I think they could've done it because the original wolf was scaring children?
