Hi, the other day I bought The Muppet Show Book from a fair, after looking inside and realising it has something that appeals to me as someone in the middle of the venn diagram of being a muppet fan and an admirer of typefaces (much more of a circle than you might).
It gave each muppet and the occasional guest their own typeface!
I thought you might like this, too, including identifying what Letraset era fonts they went with.
There's a photo limit of 10 pictures, I will be back with more. Please let me know if I'm being annoying.
