| John Turner figures were a
staple for the beginner ventriloquist back in the 1940's and 50's
and I have had many of his creations in the past but never saw a
fully functional 18" figure until I purchased this little fellow.
He only has mouth movement but he has Turner's
standard looking face with his marble eyes and even his shoes are
made by turner using wood and hard leather. I believe the clothing
you see him inn as a cowboy to be original. He is virtually an
untouched just as he came from Turner's shop. I love this little
guy.
As you can see, I have him sitting on Bob
Isaacson's "Charlie McCarthy" lap to give you a comparison of his
size. (Click
