Sesame Street: Old School, Volume 2 is a DVD set collecting episodes and skits from the early seasons of Sesame Street, released in 2007.
This set is a follow-up to the first installment, which was released in 2006. The Old School sets are marketed as a nostalgia set, aimed at teenagers and adults who remember the series from their childhood. This set contains a 12-page booklet with behind-the-scenes information and photos, and a special collectible animation cel from "Pinball Number Count."
Each episode features a special introduction by the Typewriter.
Mark M. Magner designed all packaging, disc labels, booklet and premium animation cel.
A third volume followed some five years later.

Easter Eggs[]
- On each disc, go to the bonus features menu, highlight any menu item, press Right, then Enter on your remote. An animated segment will then play. (See disc sections for information on which cartoon is on each disc).
Edits[]
- Episode 0666: "Dialing for Prizes Movie" is replaced by Beat the Time with Grover as the contestant.
- Episode 0796: In the second-to-last Street scene, the DVD release omits the last few seconds in which David and Maria kiss. (Maria sings "Happy Birthday to You," a song that was still under copyright in the United States at the time.)
- Episode 1186: A new music underscore is added to a Charlie Chaplin skit.
- Sesame Street Test Show 1: The scene in which Bob reads Where the Wild Things Are is cut; this is likely due to rights issues.
- The Super Grover, Here Is Your Life, and Sesame Street News Flash segments included as "season six classic cuts" feature later versions of the title cards, as opposed to what was originally used.
Notes[]
- On early copies of the set, a folder icon was printed in error on one of the pictures on the inside disc case. This was corrected on subsequent printings.
