Ventriloquist Figures Come In All Sizes

Ventriloquist figures come in all sizes that we all know. I forgot that I had this kind of unique novelty figure which might be the smallest I have found to date.

This is a toy Jerry Mahoney which was made as a finger vent figure and painted as a clown. It is all original and dates from the early to mid 1960’s. The shirt is made of a vinal material and the head is plastic. There is a control knob inside the shirt that if pressed up opens the mouth and if it is turned side to side the eyes actually move side to side as well.

The shirt has two holes so that a youngster could put his your her fingers through and it looked like arms. I have never seen another one like this and thought you too would enjoy seeing this cute and rare ventriloquile toy.
