Because of other purchases I am going to part with this early Ventriloquist Figure which I was going to restore but just do not have the time at present so someone is going to get a fantastic looking figure.
The head is made of Paper Mache and has a slot jaw, side to side self centering eyes ( one direction ), and a winker. The paint on him is original as well as the crepe hair. His body is wooden and his hands are great cast hands with original paint.
They do have some chips but it is an easy fix.He stands 38″ tall When this one is fixed up he will be worth at least twice what I am asking. Don’t let him get away.
