The Pony Express was depicted in both The Sesame Street 1976 Calendar, and the Great Muppets in American History (where the "Pony Expresso" delivers coffee). The 1977 storybook Tales of Sesame Gulch, included the tale of "Prairie Dawn of the Pony Express". In the story, the gallant Prairie Dawn is delivering mail when she's ambushed by Wild Willie Wailey and his gang. The gang kidnaps her and steals the mail, in revenge for never getting any letters. Prairie Dawn turns on her kidnappers, telling them that if they want to get letters, then they need to write letters first. She gives them all pencils and writing paper, and they get to work on their letters as she rides away.
