hi everyone!
producer burt sent us some pictures of his dummy(s). i’m not sure if the pictures i’m putting up are the same dummy dressed differently! (did you catch that alliteration…)
burt’s dummy close-up! ewwwww…..
is this a different dummy? see the other dummy’s legs in the background?!
how nice… the dummy is getting some fresh air on the stoop!
creepy huh?
xoxoxo
jennifer
Take the creepy doll away please.
The dummy needs serious skin care asap!
Wow. That’s very odd. Where’s Emily when you need her!
ew gross, that thing looks like its going to murder him in his sleep.
This guy is still more lively than my first husband!
Wow that guy Burt is a FREAK!!!!!
Yes that’s creepy. People that have dummies are notoriously freaky. I’d watch out for that Producer Burt if I were you.
(just kidding – I’m sure he’s perfectly normal/crazy psycho killer)
Hmmm…. interesting…. AND creepy… he could use these as scare-crow’s on the corn-field hahahaa
so funny that when you mentioned the dummies, i immediately knew who you were talking about. of course his first name was a big tip too! they’re probably very valuable!
It’s the long lost love child of Ernie Kovacs & Mike Douglas! 🙂
These may very well give me nightmares. I agree with Mica- that first pic really shows he needs to exfoilate and lay off the blush already.
omg I have that same charlie McCarthy dummy. I wish I had Burt’s email to send a pic. Mine is ancient. And dressed in a red plaid shirt. I keep it hidden away in case it comes alive at night . LoL
scary scary scary
I can’t even describe how creepy this is! As bad as circus clowns. YUCK!
After watching the old wonderful show
“The Twilight Zone” and the dummy episodes they had eww those things scare me…
but i have to say the dude who won the stupid show
America’s Got talent”
the winner makes dummies look ok and loveable haha !! 🙂
i can already hear those little shoes clacking the hardwood in the middle of the night, making their way to the kitchen, toward the knife holder on the counter.
For the love of God, please make these pictures go away…
Dummies and clowns – CREEPY!
Yep, totally creepy! Why do these dolls have lipstick on????????
SO not right..
Can you post something else with LOTS of pictures so that whole blog drops to the bottom? It creeps me out to see him out of the corner of my eye when I’m trying to enjoy reading about Alexis’ creations.
Hey – Sarah Jessica Parker called, she said to tell producer Burt to give her husband back
Oh my, yeah, these are the dummies that come alive at night when your not looking.
maybe you can put a little rifle in his hand and a hunter cap and have it shoot the deer decoy.
I live across the street from the Vent Haven Museum which is two houses full of dummies, but the curator refers to them as dolls. Ask Burt if he ever attends the convention held in Kentucky. The original Charley McCarthy is in one of those buildings. Candice Bergen was over there one day shooting a segement for 60 minutes. That was interesing to watch. When people come for the convention they visit this museum, then they sit on the lawn and look at each others dummies. Sounds like fun doesn’t it. It really does remind me of the Twlight Zone.
That dummy’s lipstick is alll wrong for him.
The second picture clearly shows evidence that these DOLLS come to life. Look at the Doll in the background shoe soles, they look worn. how scary is that.
As a daughter of puppeteers, I am truly traumatized by my “little brother” Danny (their ventriloquist doll)…and the scary clown marionettes. I swear that I could hear Danny moving around in my closet at night when I was a kid! Now that I have inherited the collection, Danny has to “live” out in the barn, cuz I can’t bear to have him in the house. Yeah…Jennifer…your posting is definitely creepy.
Thanks Jennifer, appreciate you moving that thing down…..:)
Want more creepy? Google “Robert the Haunted Doll” in the Florida Keys. That thing will give you the creeps.
just left alexis a note too. tried calling you girls today for 2 hours & i couldn’t get through. busy the whole time! anyway just wanted to wish you a happy anniversary/bday and tell you that i adore you both.just wish you girls could be on national t.v. i think you are amazing and totally rock!!
anyway our house is safe just real sad here and very scary.
p.s. these dolls need to go home with polly….
ew thats skeevy
That is great to see the dummy art is still in play. I once got to see the real Howdy Doody cast puppets. it was in an auction house (Lelands near Wantagh). My son and I were working on our NASA space memrobelia auction stuff. We saw these puppets and asked about them. They were all the puppets from the actual show and were being sold. We also saw Ace Freely’s stuff that was being shipped for a sale. They had lots of cool “stuff”. Well what else can I call it? Anyway we did see that. My wife and i also happen to meet up at a convention with Buffalo Bob himself (shortly before he passed away). We have a nice pic with him. The Howdy puppet was there too. He told us some inside tales about the show and the original Howdy doll which looked like a clown. We actually own a button that showed that he said it was 1 of 1,000 that were sent to fans. Anyway happy 2nd many more in the future I am sure. Best show ever. Say hi to your dad. Please ask him if he ever stopped by WALI at Adelphi?
Hey! Thats Jerry Mahoney.
Very popular with the kids back in the late 40’s and early 50’s.
Not creepy at all!
I’m embarrassed to admit as a kid I was into ventroliquism in a major way-I had about 10 different dummies. Although I’m the one who’s girlfriend left me to join a cult, so what does that say about me?
Jennifer, please, please post something else nice and long so we don’t have to look at those dummies!!!!
Enough with the Dummy!!! It is going to give me nightmares!
Effing creepy…
