The Creation of Mortimer Snerd

Our good friend Phil Nichols sent me a link to this wonderful video of the creation of Edgar Bergen’s wonderful figure Mortimer Snerd.

I know you will love watching this video because it is so clear and really shows Virginia doing the sculpting.

We put up, quite a number of years ago, a video all about Virginia and it is about here making marionettes and it too has a section about the creation of Mortimer and you can see it here:
