His puppets (mostly voiced and manipulated by Chuck McCann) were the main reason I became a puppeteer, and I apprenticed for Chuck -AT- WPIX. As far as I know, Paul never did a Punch & Judy show, though he was touring Malls and the such in the early to mid 1970's. If you're interested, I've written several posts about Paul on our Flexitoon blog. _http://flexitoon.blogspot.com/2009/05/paul-ashley-puppets.html_ (http://flexitoon.blogspot.com/2009/05/paul-ashley-puppets.html) All best, Craig In a message dated 8/15/2009 1:51:08 A.M.

I hapened to see a puppet show in a Macy's Department store in New Rochelle in the very early '70s and wondered if it could possibly have been performed by Paul. Did anyone on the list know him, and know whether he ever did a Punch & Judy hand puppet show? I remember the look of the Hangman very well!
