Here’s a video showing Junior Junior a Frank Marshall Ventriloquist Figure. This Marshall head is one of very few that was done with buck style teeth and he has mouth movement only.
He has semi ball and socket neck and leather under the chin. I date him from the late 1930’s and absolutely love his look. The paint is in wonderful condition and appears to be original.
This wonderful fellow has a very good story associated with his acquisition for the Ventriloquist Central Collection.

Nice to see “Junior Junior” again. It was my good fortune to acquire the walking body & then some time later, the head. Thanks for showing “Junior” with his original body; a real treat….for all
