The Sesame Street Treasury

The Sesame Street Treasury was a series of books consisting of fifteen volumes released in 1983. Using the usual writers and artists, each entry was a collection of stories, some carried over from The Sesame Street Library, and some original.

In contrast to the Library collection from a few years previous, each cover featured a photograph instead of a Joe Mathieu illustration. In addition, each volume featured a character profile and at least two pages of photographs with Linda Bove demonstrating sign language.

The inside covers placed characters in a square pattern arranged amongst the letters of the alphabet and the last page always featured Oscar and Big Bird commentary; art in both cases by Joe Mathieu.

Sold in supermarkets and originally released seperately, when all the volumes were collected, they could be stored in a Big Bird rack available via mail-order.
