When it comes to Len Insull figures the female ventriloquist figure is the rarest one which he created for sale. It seems they were not sold in any great numbers as this is the only example I have seen in person that is a complete figure.
I do remember I could have purchased just a head once but it was devoid of movements and was priced just way too high.
Today I am pleased to show you this rare Insull which is part of the Ventriloquist Central Collection. She is 100% original except for the wig. Her paint, body, hands and lower legs are all original. She is what I call the Cheeky Girl. This is also from the 1950’s and before the Insull connection with Davenport Magic.
This figure is full size standing 44″ tall and is fully loaded with the following functions; lower lip, upper lip, side moving self centering eyes, raising eyebrows, each eye winks or both together for blinkers and flapping ears.
Enjoy looking at her because you may not get a chance to see another one of these great Insull Figures.

Dan…that’s a really beautiful Insull girl figure. Very close in appearance to the cheeky boy figure, but slight difference in the shape of the face ( slimmer & more feminine). A rare figure…congratulations.
