Here’s a video showing a Bill Nelson Ventriloquist Figure, possibly number one. Bill sculpted in clay and then the heads were cast in fiberglass.
No molds of these figures were made so they are one of a kind. Bill had someone in Richmond do the jaw mechanics and that was the only function in the very first figures.
