I have given you all the important information on McQuisto in previous blogs but today I am happy to show you his Ventriloquist Figure Wee George.
Wee George was crafted just after the turn of the 19th century and was made by Alfred LeMare. When I first purchased him I was not sure of the maker but once he arrived and I got to see the head stick and controls I immediately knew it was a LeMare creation.

Brant Gilmer is one of the finest makers of wood carved figures today. He has been around for quite a long time but has kind of stayed in the shadows and even though he stays very quiet and out of sight he has a waiting list of about 3 years to have a figure built.
Here is a video of a Brant Gilmer ventriloquist figure I named “Danny Dog”.

I thought it would be a good idea for me to remind the ventriloquist community that TODAY is the final day for pre registration for the Vent Haven ConVENTion.
I know if you are like me you want to save money where ever you can so pre registering for this great ConVENTion offers you that advantage.

As a ventriloquist you are always looking for ways to promote yourself to get work. This has not changes in a hundred years and I can prove this to you.
Back in the early 1900′s a ventriloquist by the stage name of ” McQuisto” was performing in England. He was a self promoter and used the printed pamphlet to do so. His pamphlet was a cover and opened to be printed on the two inner pages. It measured 4 1/2″ by 6 1/2″ was printed on glossy stock in blue print.
