I found this at a flea market. It looks like a hand-made body and the head from the 1959 Casper Jack-In the box.
My brother and sister are rather creeped out by this puppet, but I love it! It was a gift from a missionary family...so great!
China. Fujian province. Xiamen.
Hi Heaven, built in 1921, is an old but delicate colonial building, which is a perfect model of combination of western and Chinese culture. As one of the ten villas in Gulangyu Island, Hi Heaven is the only one arranged symmetrically along the axis on the island. It was purchased by an overseas Chinese Huang Xiuliang from the Foreigner Club in the consession and then he constructed it, among the whole buildings in Hi Heaven the central one is the most special and unique.
The main features of Hi Heaven
Actually, there are 5 old villas in Hi Heaven, which can be divided into 3 sections that are open to the public. The first section has been developed into a cafe bar with Southeast Asian flavors, in which the visitors can enjoy relaxation and leisure. The second section has been developed into the Center of the Southern Ancient Music and Puppet Performances, where you can appreciate the highly skilled young puppeteers spinning plates and throwing batons to one another. The visitors can also enjoy the rare workmanship of puppet making in this section. The third section is the most distinctive one and has been developed into Architecture Art Museum of Gulangyu, mainly displaying some anecdotes of former famous people and the old stories of the house, which are very nostalgic.

Kids being kids have to be entertained. The Montreal Jazz Festival does a pretty good job for them... This puppet show was among many things the kids were glued to. I think some ofthe adults were as fascinated..
Katherine McLean reparing to announce the total number of puppets sent to the Million Puppet Project: 18,585
Wire skeleton frame, air dry clay for most of the mass, and then modelling clay for the moving parts. I didn't fire the modelling clay - I didn't have to. The flexibility was perfect.
I later broke their legs to give me a little more room for manoeuvring. In this pic, their legs are one piece. That's like locking your knees to move around.

The show started off with puppeteers. Their puppets were projected to the screen in the back. The puppets started off singing "Loser". They were really good!
If you take a look at pictures of the puppets from someone who used an SLR you'll notice that on the back of the puppet stage, there were mini-puppeteer puppets and Beck, and tiny puppets for the mini-puppeteer puppets. Beck = nerdy/awesome!
