From usatoday [excerpt], WASHINGTON — The original Kermit the Frog, his body created with an old dull-green coat and his eyes made of pingpong balls, has returned home to the nation's capital, where the puppet got his start.
The first Kermit creation from Jim Henson's Muppet's collection appeared in 1955 on the early TV show Sam and Friends, produced at Washington's WRC-TV. Henson's widow Jane Henson on Wednesday donated 10 characters from the show to the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History.
