A few of those things are complete on YouTube.....and depending on if you have the browser firefox or use a Macintosh Computer and use Safari....you can take them off youtube and put them into Mpeg format.

Another one you're going to want to see (maybe) is Of Muppets and Men. It's also available on www.youtube.com

Other than YouTube, the only thing I can tell you is to get in touch with some of the Muppet tape traders on here such as KermiClown. Someone might be willing to help you out so long as you can cover the cost of tapes and shipping.

There's a preview of the Muppet Meeting films online:

http://www.enterprisemedia.com/cgi-bin/screener?get=00386_1.wmv

I think it's early nineties, though, so JH wouldn't have actually made that one. But it explains exactly what the muppet meeting films are. You could probably still use it.

Let me know what you think and if you can use it. I might be able to help you with other films on your list.

You could also try the Jim Henson Legacy people, who look after archive stuff and other enqueries about Jim's life and work. Just do a search for the site in Google.

You can always count on Kermieclown. He has just about everything that you could possibly need.
