There are Eight Annuals, Most are actually drawings but then you get one absolutely greta page with pics of the likes of Blue Frackle, Green Frackle, Fletcher, Beakie (from Alice Cooper Band).

The Eighth, is th erarest, The Last made and the most boring, Cause its a compilation of the Seven before it.

They are worth hacing tho !

If you wanan work out a trade i got lots of 'em to trade !

See ya

I'd love that, but don't have much to trade, though. Especially nothing you wouldn't have. LOL!

If its just pics your after, I'd just go with the first 4.
They were the best, with fab pics of all the newer Muppets for that season.
George, Hilda, etc were in the first book.
Bobby Benson, Marvin Suggs, etc were in the later ones.
After that they seemed to have got bored with taking pics and just prefered drawing.
Even later down the line they seemed to even get bored of drawing and just start taking stories from previous books.
I like the first two pages on the last Muppet annual by the way.
That was one of my favourite Muppet pics of all time.
Wish they had a poster of that somewhere.
I believe it was in the 81 annual too.

You'd probably agree on this.
Remember ages ago when talk of a film called Muppet Haunted HOuse or something like that was in the pipeline?
I automatically though of that Haunted House story from one of the annuals.
That story was hilarious.
Demons taking off their heads to scare Gonzo only for him to beg them to do it again. *Wait, Tell me your secret*
Werewolfs creeping up on Annie Sue only to be picked up by thog and put out for the night *Come on Puddie*
Fozzie drying his face on the towel-like ghost.
Dragons diving out of cupboards Groowwwling, only to run off screaming when coming face to face with Sweetums.

Who said a film like that wouldn't work? :smile:
