If You Like Collecting,

and your favourite show was the Muppet's,


you will have to be quick to bid on these, created by Jim Henson for the first, pilot episode of the "Muppets" TV show, this collection includes Henson's hand-drawn "Muppets" illustrations, handwritten story ideas, and the very first introduction of several new characters, including "Piggy Lee," who would make her cinematic debut as "Miss Piggy" in the episode, which aired on 13 October 1974,


each illustration is affixed to a foam board and framed in a Plexiglass cube, five measure 11" x 14", four measure 14" x 17", there is some fading on the photos and handwriting and minor scratching to Plexiglass, the starting price was $1,000, but with less than 24 hours to go had already reached $7,423, any guesses as to what the lot will go for?
