		Howdy's face symbolized the youthful energy of the new medium and appeared on the NBC color test pattern beginning in 1954.

	News From Noel Barrett Antique Toys
		Another Howdy is in the Smithsonian - sometimes referred to as “photo Doody” as he was used for still photography in various advertising campaigns.
		Dawson she said her Howdy hands were always covered in brown to simulate gloves, these are the hands on our Howdy and on Fadoozle, one of the “originals”.
		What is clear is that this is probably the earliest Howdy that will ever be offered for sale at auction and it is a Howdy as near to the original as exists since it was not subject to constant refurbishment over the years that gives the other surviving puppets their almost “new” appearance.

		Smith created a number of characters for that show, and the one he named Elmer would often exclaim "Well, howdy doody!" After Smith convinced NBC to let him try a network puppet show called Puppet Playhouse Theater, it was decided one of the marionettes on the new show would be named Howdy Doody.
		Puppeteer Frank Paris was given the job of creating Howdy, and the figure he came up with bore little resemblance to the freckle-faced boy we all know today.
		Howdy and his stringed friends were moved to Saturdays, where they stayed until the show went off the air in 1960.
