Ventriloquist Barbara Baxter on TV |
If you’ve gone to the Vent Haven ConVENTion the past few years then you’ve sure seen ventriloquist Barbara Baxter (and if you haven’t, you’re missing out). Barbara is a delightful person and was on a local television access channel in her area recently. She sent us the video to share with the ventriloquist community. |

McQuisto and His Real Name |
McQuisto was his stage name but in real life he was Fred B. Crouch aka Frederick Bernard. He lived in Woodford England and after intense research all that was found about him was that he had a son who was in the RAF during World War II and perished in the protection of England at that time. |
James Manalli Ventriloquist Figure Carving |

Cutting Cloths For Ventriloquist Figures |
Something that is always on the mind
of the ventriloquist while dressing their figure is if they should
cut the clothing to accommodate the access to the head stick. This
is a common thought and I myself have had to make the choice many
times. |

William Henry James Shaw Ventriloquist FigureOne of the early Ventriloquist figure Makers in the US was Shaw. He was a mannequin maker and did window displays but he also made vent figures. I am happy to share with you this very rare wooden figure made by Shaw sometime around the turn of the 20th century. This figure is typical of his work in that it has leather for the mouth and the hands are the stylized carved fingers.
