Fans of “The Peggy Mitchell Show” can get a close-up look at puppets, pictures and other memorabilia from the show in an exhibit at Central Library.
Mitchell, who died in April at age 73, hosted “The Peggy Mitchell Show” on WEHT Channel 25 from 1961-86. The show’s puppet characters included Ezmarelda, Terrible Tilly and Monkey Shine, and Mitchell often invited Tri-State children to join her on the show.
Other items in the exhibit include Mitchell’s puppet house, news stories and music. All of the items are on loan from Mitchell’s son, Kirk.
The exhibit is on display in the library’s lobby through the end of August.
