Ventriloquist Jay Johnson's "Bob"

A couple of weeks ago, I posted a blog about an early Rene that is similar to ventriloquist Jay Johnson’s “Bob.” (Click here to see the blog post)

Terry Ottinger sent in these pictures and email:

“My girlfriend and I recently took a ride down to the Smithsonian to see Bob for ourselves. Heres a couple of snapshots we took of him. I hope you enjoy.”
