Main

(1992–1996)

Bumper: On the same background as the Jim Henson Video logo, we see the following clip-ons in the Optima Italic font.

Clip-Ons:

• Coming Soon on Videocassette
• Now Available on Videocassette
• Feature Presentation

Technique: None.

Music/Sounds:

• Both “...on Videocassette” clip-ons: None.
• Feature Presentation: The last few notes of Howard Pfeifer's "All for Just One Thin Dime" as heard on the "Comic Sans Prototype" Feature Program clip-on, with Beau Weaver saying, "And now, our feature presentation."

Music/Sounds Variant: On the 1992 demo VHS release of The Muppet Movie, the Jim Henson Video music is heard over the "Feature Presentation" clip-on. No announcer is heard.

Availability: Slightly common. Can be found on VHS releases of The Muppet Christmas Carol and Muppet Classic Theater, and the 1996 VHS issue of Emmet Otter's Jug Band Christmas. VHS copies of The Muppet Movie and The Great Muppet Caper that don't have the aforementioned Feature Program ID have this, too, as well as the variants.

Legacy: A tame bumper despite some off-putting factors such as the 1989 Jim Henson Productions logo that follows it. The lilac background slightly resembles that of the Handwriting clip-ons.
