Wayong,

The Dwiggins Collection is housed in the Rare Books Department / Special
Collections at the Boston Public Library.  Just did a search of their
website and couldn't find any on-line photos, but our guild and PofA
reprinted an historical booklet about the puppets for our 1989 National
Festival, and we gave the library the last of the copies the year of the
first National Day of Puppetry, when we co-sponsored an event there which
included tours of the collection. You might be in touch with them to see if
they have any copies left.  No photos as I recall, but lots of drawings and
diagrams. The puppets are charming.

Karen
