Sesame Street Magazine (NHK)

NHK released a monthly magazine/program guide for Sesame Street during the show's run on that network. They included (as time went on) transcripts for each week of episodes (in both English and Japanese), comic strips and various activity pages, as well as character profiles, sheet lyrics to the Sesame Street Theme, photos, and special articles focusing on fans, cast members and facts. Additionally, people (children and adults) sent in artwork of the characters.

At some point an issue was devoted to a Muppet in the month of that Muppet's birthday(i.e: June: Oscar, July: Bert; see Character Birthdays) with a special article on him/her complete with photos, a profile and artwork sent in by fans.
