Kermit bag - Target

[frogface]

Hi everyone,

I'm new to Kermit collecting so please forgive my ignorance.

Today I purchased a great Kermit canvas bag from Target. It has a "55" patch on it - what does that mean?

Thanks,
Marcye

That's the year (1955) when Kermit was first introduced on Sam & Friends.

Hi Telly,

Thanks for the info! That makes Kermit one year younger than me - how sweet

I found them in the luggage section, they were mixed in with some Hello Kitty bags They had backpacks too.

I just saw the bag online. Here's the link to it.

I'm considering getting it. It's so inexpensive, I walk a lot and I'm a backpack sort of guy (not a trendy one-strappy bag that kills my shoulder after an hour of city walking sort of guy...because it's really not good for body in the long run). My current backpack is great, (and always has a Muppet bean/plush hitching a ride on the zipper anyway) but variety is good too. Hmmmm.

Thanks again for posting about it.

Oh, how cool. I should ask my sister-in-law to pick it up for me (she works at one and has quicker access to it) so I can use it for my work bag.
