One thing I have wondered about. The page on lost episodes points out that certain lost street scenes survive as German dubs. Do we know if Sesame Workshop still has copies of all international dubs in storage or if those just survive because fans happened to record the episodes?
I guess it doesn’t matter that much, and it would probably be a lot more work to figure out whether there are lost international episodes (through I think I’ve read that most of Sesame Street Canada is lost). I don’t even know if Sesame Workshop would have them in storage or if different international companies would.
