thank you Phillip for posting this series of work in progress - long live the marionette !
It was John M BlundalL a fellow puppet hub member who carved the original bodies in the 1960's and I'm sure he'd be happy to talk about their construction.
The wooden masters were moulded and cast in a hard plastic material for ease of duplication.
Wonderful work.
HYSTERICAL! LOL! :D

Bill Henderson said… - Thanks for inviting me to be your friend. I was in London for the first time a couple years ago when two of my best friends were working for about six months as "puppet wranglers" on a Nickleodeon show called Bunny Town. Stayed with them for a couples weeks and enjoyed the "sights". Unfortunately, I didn't know where to find any puppetry!

I would really love to be able to get back to England one of these days and meet some of the wonderful puppeteers iIhave been introduced to through puppet hub. Puppetry is obviously alive an well in the UK
