Description: PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE DESCRIPTION! Rare Paul Winchell "OZWALD" Ventriloquist Dummy Puppet Doll One of a Kind! Ozwald! There is no other toy like it. Berwin Industries produced this odd do-it-yourself ventriloquist toy concocted by Paul Winchell; creator of Jerry Mahoney and Knucklehead Smith. Paul Winchell's TV show was one of the most popular shows of the late 1950s and early 1960s. However, this toy was so strange that it really wasn't a big seller. which makes its difficult to find today. The set is complete right down to Oswald's 4pg. tv script! Despite being just very slightly used it grades in near mint condition. The all-important Ozwald body mask is in perfect condition. The basic concept uses two mirrors positioned to present a perfect inverted image. Everything looks upside-down. Using the creative pencil, draw eyes and nose on your own chin. Your mouth becomes Ozwalds mouth. Place the mask over your face and ta-da! Ozwald appears. The Ozwald character actually had his own segment on the show (see photo below). Paul would lay down with his head leaning over the stage. His body would be draped in black to make it inconspicuous. Of course, he used a cloth Ozwald body, but the idea was the same. HISTORY: Paul Winchell also made several TV commercials advertising OZWALD. He also secured a patent! He was granted patent # 3,129,001 in 1964 for an "inverted novelty mask".
