Weaver, Jr., Flagstaff, Arizona <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV>Some of the puppets have nice heads and costumes and good knee joints, <DIV></DIV>although nothing is even close to "mint." Some of the heads are beautifully <DIV></DIV>painted but others are pretty crude. Some have an elbow joint; others have a <DIV></DIV>one-piece arm that curves slightly. Most of them have hands made from wire, <DIV></DIV>wrapped with adhesive tape. (ycch) Heads are made from solid clay, or <DIV></DIV>plaster bandage or wood. Bodies are wood and cloth. They have very long <DIV></DIV>strings, attached to two same-sized dowels with notches carved in them to <DIV></DIV>keep the strings separate. The dowels were not attached to each other. I <DIV></DIV>can't imagine operating them. <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV>Anybody know anything about any of these people? <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV>Thanks for your help! <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV>Nancy Smith <DIV></DIV>Great Arizona Puppet Theater <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV></div><br clear=all><hr>Join the world’s largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. <a href='http://g.msn.com/1HM1ENUS/c157??PI=44364'>Click Here</a><br></html> --- Personal replies to: "Dave Goboff" <davego167-AT-hotmail.com> --- List replies to: puptcrit-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu --- Admin commands to: majordomo-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu --- Archives at: http://lists.village.virginia.edu/~spoons
