Set of two original Bert and Ernie soft rubber finger puppets, both stamped Muppets Inc. and Made in Hong Kong. These early Sesame Street collectibles—produced in the late 1960s–1970s—are sought after for their handmade charm: molded rubber bodies, glued-on hair tufts, and hand-painted details.

Both puppets show typical vintage wear. Ernie has notable paint wear across the sweater and hands, and his eyes show aging. Bert’s paint is brighter but his eyebrows and hair show light frizz and handling wear. Both remain structurally solid and display great on a shelf as an authentic vintage pair.

Highlights:

• Original Muppets Inc. Hong Kong finger puppets

• Classic early designs with textured sweaters and glued hair

• Includes Bert (green sweater) and Ernie (blue sweater)

• Honest vintage wear, great for collectors or display

• Hard-to-find matching pair
