A Visit From Ventriloquist Mike Robinson
Today was a real treat for me because professional ventriloquist Mike Robinson, who is currently performing on Holland America Cruise lines, had his ship the Maarsdam dock in Boston. Mike told me he had a window of about 5 hours and wanted to know if he could come to my house to see the ventriloquist figure collection. I was happy to accommodate so I drove into the seaport section of Boston and picked up Mike from his ship and then drove back to my house.
Mike told me that as a child he watched the Uncle Bobby show all the time so he was thrilled to be able to actually hold Happy Hazard and work his controls. He also was amazed at the great Johnny figure which was made by Lee Dunn. We spent a couple hours looking over the many figures, then we went to lunch and after lunch I drove him back to catch his ship which departs this afternoon. We had a wonderful visit.
Mike thanks for contacting me and coming to see the collection.
