The Mexican Revolution (1910-1920), which lasted a decade and transformed the nation, was extensively chronicled by Mexican, American, and European photographers and illustrators. Thousands of images captured a country at war. Never before, and possibly never since, has a country been the subject of such scrutiny or fascination. From postcards of the 1910 Fiesta del Centenario, to images of a war that was waged on several fronts by ever-shifting revolutionary factions, to photographs of the 1923 assassination of the retired Pancho Villa, A Nation Emerges: The Mexican Revolution Revealed chronicle this complex, multifaceted chapter in Mexico's history.

With the critical and popular success of the first season (1969–1970) of Sesame Street, the Children’s Television Workshop (CTW, called Sesame Workshop today) began licensing books, puzzles, games, and toys to support its school-readiness curriculum and other educational projects. In 1970, Random House and Western Publishing Company (home of Little Golden Books) began publishing books with Sesame Street characters and themes. Today, more than 75 domestic and international licensees create Sesame Street books in traditional and electronic formats.
“Forty Years of Sesame Street Illustration” reflects both the talent and diversity of the artists who created these works and the great inspiration of city streets, communities, and Sesame Street characters.
