GONZO'S Flag from Muppet's Take Manhattan - 1984

 

The Muppets Take Manhattan was perhaps the pinnacle of classic Muppets with Jim Henson and Frank Oz. A Gonzo flag appears in one of the flashback scenes.  We never get a clear view of the flag since it flutters in the wind.  But in the image above you can see the 'O', 'N', and 'Z' of GONZO. 

A complete image of the GONZO flag, but the wording is hard to make out since the film has faded.





Here is the King of Off the Wall comments.  Apparently Gonzo was the old school of left field, snarky comments.  However, Gonzo can't help himself, his brain is always out of step for the dead pan, weirdo black comedy.
