This is a wonderful Sesame set. It consists of an autographed  8" x 10"photo (matted to an 11" x 14" size) of the character, Big Bird, signed by Caroll Spinney, the voice and puppeteer for Big Bird from 1969 until his retirement in 1918. He also voiced and was puppeteer for most of that time period for Oscar the Grouch. On the photo he  wrote "Hi from Sesame Street!, and also signed, "Big Bird! Rottenly- Oscar- and his name, Caroll Spinney.
 
In addition to the autographed photo, we are selling his book titled, The Wisdom of Big Bird  (and the Dark Genius of Oscar the Grouch) : Lessons from A Life in Feathers. He wrote it with co-author Jason Milligan. The copyright was 2003. Caroll drew a wonderful picture of Big Bird while at his booth on the very first blank page when you open the book but did not sign the book. Our mistake.

Both items were signed at the Hollywood Collectors show in Burbank, California, on April 25, 2009.
