    Trying to remember character or show PBS 80's
    I have been trying to remember a puppet character or the name of the show for years! For a longtime I thought it was called pinwheel, but after doing some research I found out pinwheel is not the show.

    The character I remember had a rainbow striped neck and a red peg nose, he was kind of pole shapped with arms (maybe) . Seemed to always be on screen alone, centered in the middle of the screen. He might have been reading a book or telling a story. I think the background was orange, or maybe he was orange.

    I swear I thought his name was pinwheel,but he wasn't on the pinwheel show I looked at all those puppets.

    If anyone remembers this puppet please let me know so I don't feel crazy. Thanks a bunch... can't wait to check back
    :eek:

    I just remembered he might have a bow tie, but for sure the rainbow striped neck.
    Someone has to have seen this puppet before. HELP PLEASE!

    YouTube - WPWR Channel 50 - Romper Room & Friends (Part 2, 1981/1991) I found the video of it! The puppet didn't have a rainbow striped neck but it was red and white striped and had a red peg nose.
