It has been a tedious job for my webmaster and partner Steve to get all the pictures that we both took and were offered to us, by others in attendance at the conVENTion, up on the Ventriloquist Central Website.

But even being sick with walking pneumonia Steve has done it. To look at all these wonderful pictures click the link below. And if you took pictures and want to add them please feel free to contact us and we will do just that.

Bob Isaacson My Ventriloquist Mentor

For me every time I go to the Vent Haven ConVENTion the highlight is being able to spend time with my good friend and mentor Bob Isaacson.

As everyone knows Bob is a very knowledgeable man in all aspects of the history of Ventriloquism, is a consummate professional ventriloquist and also has been a collector for many years. He took me under his wing early on in my quest for ventriloquist figures and still today helps me in many ways.

We always spend much time together talking about Frank Marshall and his creations and for me this makes my ConVENTion. So I just want to take this moment to say a big THANKS to Mr Bob Isaacson for helping me (and Steve) with Ventriloquist Central and for being my friend.

If you go to ConVENTion it would be my pleasure to introduce you to this great icon in the ventriloquist world although you really don’t need me because Bob will talk with you if you just say hello!!

1935 Photo to Share of Ventriloquist Senor Wences

senorwences1935

Our “resident” expert about Ventriloquist Senor Wences, Bill Smith, sent in the nice photo that he just acquired to share with everyone.

According to Bill, Senor Wences came stateside in 1934 and this photo was taken the next year.

As you can tell, Johnny, looked a little different back then.

Thanks Bill for sharing with everyone.

Impromptu Ventriloquism with Pete Michaels

On Saturday evening, the last of the couple hours of the Vent Haven ConVENTion, I purchased a pretty nice figure and as I was walking out of the dealer’s room and into the hallway I bumped into Pete Michaels and he put his hand inside the figures back and did some shtick.

 

 

I thought you would enjoy seeing this great short video of one of the funny men working today!! Thanks Pete !!
