Bob Isaacson’s Educational Series on Natural Gas
We posted these videos seven years and since they’re buried in the archives, I thought it would be great to show them again. George Boosey sent these to me years ago when we first posted it.
What you are about to see is a 31 year young Bob Isaacson with his pal Speedy in an educational series on Natural Gas. These were filmed back in 1966 and you get to see how great Bob is as a ventriloquist and you also see his wonderful Frank Marshall figure Speedy Wheeler.
I know you are going to enjoy this so sit back for a few minutes and watch.

With the popularity of Edgar Bergen and his characters Charlie McCarthy and Mortimer Snerd back in the 1930s to 1960s. I think I can safely say that vent figure builders of the day saw the potential for sales if they produced figures that resembled Mortimer Snerd.
Frisch Marionette Tutorial: Making Puppet Heads with MendALL Wood Filler
We saw this video on Facebook and had to share it with everyone. We contacted Kevin and he said we had his permission to do just that.
In this video Kevin shows you how to make a puppet (or dummy) head using the MendAll Wood filler. His first part of the process is very similar to the way the McElroy’s made their heads.
