“Muppet Theatre” Screen Print by James V. Carroll

Dark Ink Art - Standard Edition “Muppet Theatre” Screen Print by James V. Carroll

As you all know The Blot’s a Muppet fanatic, so of course I’m all over this newest release from Dark Ink Art (formerly Acme Specialty Art). The “Muppet Theatre” screen print by James V. Carroll celebrates the 35th anniversary of the gone but never forgotten original Muppet Show. What really makes this print special is Carroll’s connection to the Muppet franchise. The San Francisco artist is not only a known contributor to the Muppet fan community, but he actually worked with Palisades Toys for many of their classic action figure designs.
