Does anyone know where this picture comes from? -- Danny 22:14, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
- Maybe it's a production still from The Great Muppet Caper? Judging by Piggy's wardrobe, which looks like one she wore in that film. - User:Connolly86 (talk) 3:38, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
- I've seen the picture before, and it's on Alamy with no helpful info (or accurate) info, but I don't know what it's from either.
- Regarding Connolly's comment though, this looks to me like something Piggy wore in GMC, but I'm not sure that it is. It occurred to me that a database of Piggy's outfits sorted by production would be a helpful thing for situations like this and would be a lot of fun to put together

- I think it might be related to a production that was never made, based on Murder on the Orient Express or something. I remember seeing a posed photo at a Museum of TV and Radio exhibit back in my pre-wiki Tough Pigs days, but there wasn't any other information and smartphones didn't exist yet so I didn't take a picture of it. I know that this commment makes me sound vaguely senile but maybe it'll jog someone's memory? -- Danny 14:38, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
- Here's that picture (included in The Muppets Say Cheese) but it's not a match, and the background info on Alviero Martini (from Scott's correspondence with John E. Barrett) suggests it was just the one photo. -- Andrew

- Ah, that would be what I remember. So no, this is from something else. It seems like one of those fashion magazine spreads like in GQ or ODDA Magazine, but I think that's more of a 2010s phenomenon, and it feels like this picture is earlier than that. -- Danny 18:24, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
