One of the best videos is his time spent with The Jim Henson Legacy looking at old archival items while talking about Henson with vice-president Karen Falk. One of Jim Henson's Creature Shops is located in Queens, NY, and it's situated right next door to the "Henson Legacy", the organization dedicated to preserving his history and managing his archives.
