WINNIE THE POOH & FRIENDS by Bil Baird

I love the puppetry of Bil Baird! Just found his RARE hardcover book THE ART OF THE PUPPET on my book shelf :) This WINNIE THE POOH was part of Shirley Temple's STORYBOOK series and I have this episode on DVD. He later brought the puppets out again with Olga Marin.

IT'S HOWDY DOODY TIME

There is a VERY cool 5 disc dvd set at TARGET of the original HOWDY DOODY shows with the commercials and it is REALLY cheap $20. Has a nice book of original NBC stills too. My friends (GRAIG & OLGA) at FLEXITOON tell me that they were involved with a few HOWDY projects as well, including an appearance of BUFFALO BOB on the SALLY JESSIE RAFAEL show...where they did the puppetry of Mr. Doody.
