Tough Pigs Anthology

Sept 2003

 

Back to School

with the Sesame Street 

Learning Kit

 

 

   Come with me to 1970, that bygone age when people could talk about Sesame Street's "artistic and intellectual virginity" and still keep a straight face. This month in the Anthology, we're going to take a look at the Sesame Street Learning Kit -- the very first set of Sesame products, produced by Time-Life to coincide with the first season of the show. We're also going to look at a lot of deeply strange Sesame art.
