As we all know, at this point in time, when Edgar
Bergen decided to purchase his figure from the Mack's studio he had
to choose from an array of heads. From what I have learned he chose
a stock head and then had the Mack's do some customizing to make it
the Irish Newsboy he wanted to use.
I have had this particular figure in my collection for almost as
long as I have been collecting. After I first purchased him I was in
touch with Joe Lopez, a Charlie McCarthy fanatic, and he informed me
that this is the head that Mr Bergen chose. Hence my name Pre
Charlie Charlie.
When I purchased this figure the head had been painted maybe ten
times over and the wig had been replaced with what had become a
ratty excuse for hair. I decided it had to be redone and the end
result I have liked for ever. It is Charlie McCarthy from another
dimension. LOL All kidding aside if you look at him you can see that
with his nose and cheeks thinned a bit Charlie McCarthy is there.
This is a full size Mack figure standing 40" tall the head stick
goes to the bottom board and attached with the original threaded
screw into the bottom of the head stick. This gives him a sweet 360
degree rotation which is flawless. He also has one eye which is a
rolling winker and of course slot jaw.
