*Knucklehead Smiff* Ventriloquist Doll *Paul Winchell Jerry Mahoney

This is the extremely rare 25-inch Knucklehead Smiff  Ventriloquist Doll made famous by Paul Winchell. These early composition Knuckleheads rarely surface, and you'll be hard pressed to find one in any condition. These are the very first dummies ever produced by Juro Novelty. The head is much larger than the three Knucklehead dolls that followed. This little guy is in need of total restoration. His original paint has cracking on his head and hands. His coat and pants are faded, but they are original. His bow tie and shirt were replaced long ago, and he's missing his shoes. His pull string moving mouth has been repaired and works. There are doll repair shops online, such as "Ruby Lane," that completely restore these dolls to look brand new! Please feel free to message with any questions. $24 shipping in the U.S. International shipping is available through eBay.
