Lois Ray was not the only puppet-related act at Bimbo's.

Around 1965/6  Stan Kramer's marionettes performed there on a double bill with Mamie van Doren. Stan did his "Les Poupees Joly" which was in the vein of Krofft's Les Poupees de Paris with only two puppeteers. 

I was there in the audience. Afterward Mamie van Doren posed with a Charlie Mc Carthy figure for a publicity photo around Valentine's Day. Charlie as an old man was on loan from Edgar Bergen, part of the puppet exhibit I curated for Lytton Savings & Loan's art gallery in north Oakland CA.
