Being a collector I just could not resist when I
was able to ad Punch & Judy to the Ventriloquist Central Collection.
Even though this is a true puppet set it is so closely related and
this set was so nice I just had to have it.
This is a set of eight figures with a wonderful example of both
Punch and Judy carved from basswood. Also in the set is the baby,
rabbit, policeman, snake, lady and crocodile. These figures are all
old figures dating from the 1940's and 50's and all are still in
beautiful condition.
This set up also came to the collection with a wonder stage set to
do the show. Across the top it says Paul's Puppets. And it says that
because this set belonged to Paul Berson a great performer and
builder of some very fine magical apparatus. Unfortunately Paul has
passed on but another thing that accompanied this set was a great
DVD ( it was transferred from tape) of Paul doing his Punch & Judy
show.
I just had to share this set with you all and I hope you enjoy
seeing same.
