Picture Pages

In 1974, Picture Pages started as a local Pittsburgh kids show. It went to a national segment of the Captain Kangaroo show in 1978, in which Captain Kangaroo himself would do the lessons on his "magic drawing board." In 1980, the segments were taken over by Bill Cosby and the lessons were used with his Mortimer Ichabod/MI marker.

  1. Thanks so much for posting this! I remember watching this and being SO upset because I didn't have a Picture Pages book and a Mortimer marker. :)
