Honestly, I'm just shocked anyone would want him. He's not the most attractive character. LOL.

A lot of people are a bit spooked by Patsy. There is just something creepy about vent puppets. now auntie is another story.

Yes director.. you are right. First time I saw Patsy I nearly bolted, but gave her a chance, and became a 'follower'. Have you made an offer to itzmichele yet?

I still haven't heard back from the Pelahm folks....going to try once more.
just messaaged them on Facebook.
Re: Hoping to Tap Into Your Expertise Posted by itzmichele on Apr 10, 2015
OK, I heard back from Pelham:
"Hi, Yes, I also received your email, apologies for not replying sooner. This is a "Vent puppet" called Walter Ego, first made in 1968 and produced by Pelham Puppets specially for Creative Playthings Princeton NJ. he also had a companion Confido."
Now, do I contact the Uncle Floyd Show people (if around) to see if he is from that show? He sure looks like it....but then again, if it was made for Creative Playthings, there are probably a few out there and it wasn't exclusive to the show?

Walter Ego!
What an excellent name!
Re: Hoping to Tap Into Your Expertise Posted by itzmichele on Apr 13, 2015
Right? Well, he'll be going up on eBay shortly. I don't collect puppets, and have no need for him. Hopefully someone who really appreciates him will give him a new home
thanks everyone!

It has been fun sharing your adventure of Walter Ego's rescue. I think those vents look clown like, and clowns scare a lot of kids. Now I want to know what Confido looked like.
