Folks,
I have a fair random question, does anyone know where I can get hold of autographs of all the Muppeteers for my autograph collection?

I've already got Jim Hensons', so I just want the other main ones - Dave Goelz, Steve Whitmire, Frank Oz, Jerry Nelson and Richard Hunt. I've only had luck finding Frank Oz's but thats on a photo of Yoda (not a fan really:eek: ). If anyone can help I would appreciate it:smile:

Thanks guys

No way! I hope you took a sample of his hair and worshipped the hem of his garments! He's one person I'd love to meet in the flesh. I would pick his brains for hours, infact, it would probably end up like the film Misery for him so it's lucky he hasn't:stick_out_tongue:

I came close to meeting Jim when I was a kid but he died just before it was due to happen. My Uncle was an MD or something:confused: at the Bradford Alambra Theatre that showed the Muppet Show Live and had dinner with Jim and some other people involved in the show. He told him he had a nephew that loved the Muppets. I don't remember any of the details, I just know it was going to be at the same time as the National Photographic Museum put on a Muppet exhibition in 1990. Sadly fate intervened:sympathy: I got Jims autograph a couple of years back from a UACC registered autograph dealer.

AM I THE ONLY PERSON ON THE PLANET THAT HASN'T MET FRANK OZ? I'm starting to think it's personal! What was he like Lab Rat?
