Wow that restored dummy is going to be a collectors treasure.

[@debbutcher9087]

After his restoration I can vision him setting on the ventriloquist lap around the turn of the century on stage in a English music hall. It would of been fascinating to see.

[@RicksPuppets]

Nice restoration, but he was nice as a vintage wreck before the work. I would like to see a lot more of the restoration in process. Thanks.

[@Mapparrott]

As a collector of Ventriloquist figures . I found this episode interesting. Valuation at the end was a little on the high side .

[@markwatters6875]

Great job done on the creepy little bugger.

[@MartyP-lr7vw]

Those drawings are just excellent !

[@davidsnyder2000]

I know there were controls in the dummies back to make him move, but I had no clue that it was that complex. There are a lot of moving parts😦

[@danf321]

Interesting 👍. And that’s what my wife calls me...ventriloquist dummy. But she skips the ventriloquist part🤣.

[@plumbingstuffinoregon2471]

There's something very charming about that guy. Not creepy like other dummies.

[@MDeLorien]

Nice and interesting video 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 ( but this dummys are so kreepy to me 😫😭)

[@mrretrovampire]

That's the same figure made for 'Dead Of Night' with Michael Redgrave '1945'

[@oneshotme]

[@GuyX2013]

[@patmadix172]

Vent Haven Museum dedicated to Ventriloquism Fort Mitchell Ky would like that

[@sofiatoledo7205]

Gracias por compartir esa hermosa reliquia

[@asensibleyoungman2978]

It only got in that state because Drew had been frantically shagging it for the past 25 years.

[@douglasarnold5310]

I think it will be well over 1,500 if it's fully restored

[@archivestereo]

Love this!!!!!

[@TheThatoneguy12121]

600-700 just for an old dummy in that condition. I feel like if there was paper work or information of it being part of a famous act then I could understand that. Are these really detailed ones very uncommon.

[@dylanho8608]

Restored dummy looks like Garry Shandling

[@JonBlondell]

A great series, and very talented restorers, but no way is the bloke worth that kind of money!

[@graevly8066]

You’d be surprised.

[@TheSGBrown]

Austin Phillips should have restored the figure!

[@generix47]

Why does the Dummy look like a young Tom hanks ? :P

[@sadielsantos8167]

he is sort of a winker , isnt he ?

[@thomasplouffe1363]

So eton is a boarding public school for boys aged 13-18, basically a boarding high school

[@danm2608]

Sorry. I thought it said; "How to RETORT to a Rare Ventriloquist Dummy." I know those dummies say sharp, witty things. It would have been be handy to be prepared in case I got into a verbal with one.

Slappy be like:

[@seanhammond4034]

The Repairer Bought my Doll

[@legato4412]

[@johntate5050]
