An icon of Australian children’s television, Mr Squiggle, will feature in an upcoming exhibition at the National Museum of Australia in Canberra.
The Museum acquired the collection of Mr Squiggle’s creator, Norman Hetherington, in April last year, when a small selection of the works went on display. The beloved puppet with a pencil as his nose featured in 41 seasons of the ABC series between 1959 to 1999.
