One of the rarities from the shop
of ventriloquist figure builder Len Insull is his old man figure. I
have had many of Insull's cheeky boy figures but the old man has
always eluded me until now. So I am pleased to share him with you.
He stands 44" tall and has his original body, hands and feet and his
head is fully loaded with the following movements. Self centering
eyes, individual winking eyes, blinking eyes, raising eyebrows,
wiggling ears upper lip and lower lip. The original grey crepe hair is
in terrific condition as well as his original paint which is showing
its age. His head is drop through and is supported by the
ventriloquist. No head lock with Insull figures. He is pre Davenport
so is from the 1950's.
I received him undressed so the clothing you see on him now I dressed
him in and they look appropriate.
I hope you enjoy seeing this rare Insull.
