Little is known about this doll, it was sold as a prototype and after extensive research, we determined that this is a prototype puppet- from the early days of The Muppets- of a minor character named "Pierre The French Rat." It is highly likely that this is one of a kind. it is obviousy not in the best condition but it is all we have; there is no "better" example than this, one, prototype. He is a functioning hand puppet with foam lining the interior of the opening for the arm. He is made of latex apparently which is cracking. he seems like he was made with the utmost quality and definitely with the intent to impress anyone using it or enjoying its apperance.Jim Henson first created this character in highschool, so he is one of the most classic Muppets characters known. Another puppet of Pierre is seen in the Smithsonian National Museum of American History, pictured in the final images. To think that another piece to the history of Muppets is contained in this doll is such an exciting thought. We hope Pierre's new owners will make the most of his history and show him off to the world.
