I was reading at the Muppet Wiki website, in the page on animator Cliff Roberts, that there was a Sesame Street comic strip. A link is posted, but it leads to an article page that does not exist yet. So I'd like to know if anybody knows anything about the Sesame Street comic strip? I think it was written by Cliff Roberts, judging by the fact that it was mentioned on the website in his page, and the animated characters Julius and Jasper were included.

Does anybody know anyhting else, like how long it ran and what characters were featured?

I can say that because my uncle has a clipping of a newspaper way back from 1960's-early 1970's, and in there in the comics section- there was Sesame Street. It was only one clipping he had but I remember seeing Christopher Clumsy, and no doubt Julius and Jasper were there as well.

I would love to know more about it myself, in fact I started another thread about it, a link to which can be found down below. I can tell you this much, the Sunday version ran in the Australian Women's Weekly from either 1971 or 72 and must have gone until 75. I don't know what papers the daily strip ran in.
