That's pretty cool. Out of curiosity, can you share how you were able to acquire that piece for your collection?

A fantastic find fer sure! :smile: This is one of the few sketches I remember from my childhood, it was reinforced greatly by being included in "The Muppet Show Book", ha.

Do you plan on framing it, or maybe displaying it on an easel as seen in that episode? Either way would look gorgeous for such an awesome piece.

Good on you, and thank you for sharing!

Very nice, it's been awhile since I've seen that sketch, loved their rendition of "Look at That Face." :smile:

It is nice to see something turn up and know it has survived, as a lot of production props end up in the dumpster.Thanks for sharing.What other props do you have?

Oooooooooh, Doctor Who? YEAH! All I have as far as props are CO''s 10th Doctor Sonic... well, thats all, lol. Looking to get the 4th Docs' Sonic, and to someday build my own K9. Oh, and this year my wife is going to knit me a season 16/17 scarf!! :big_grin: Super excited about that. A life size TARDIS and/or classic console would be a dream come true!

On my way to check out your sites, cheers!
