Abstract
The History Center is proud to be the home of the Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood set in addition to other artifacts related to the television show, including one of his sweaters and a pair of sneakers, which have all become pop culture icons. In celebrating the 50th anniversary of the show’s debut and its enduring impact, we have a unique opportunity here in Pittsburgh — because of our access to the regional institutions and people who contributed to the show — to document and share all that went into making this local show a national success.
