So I thought I might show you some of the puppets I've collected over the years. Some of them have significance to me personally as they were owned or used by people behind you or they had significance from my childhood as I used to maybe want some of them and collected a few of them over the years. So the first punch I've got to show you today is one by Fred Tickler who as we now is one of the greatest puppet makers there was for Puncture Judy puppets and other puppets and to make muffin the beaulers we all know. So this punch here, nice big Fred punch, has jaw meaning for me because not only was it owned by Bob Wade it was made by Fred. So I saw Bob using this punch at the Dickens Festival at Rochester. He used to walk around during his performances to do photogress with people in his Victorian outfit. So I got this from Bob along with the Judy which is a little bit odd but here's the Judy and you can see she's one of the only duties I have with the eyes that actually model shape. I never quite understood why but they make a great pair and these are play the masheye. So not really usable in the show, the more for show and probably a mental piece item. So when I was young then one of the things that I got through the post which really was an amazing thing to get especially with no internet then was the supreme magic catalogue with all the tricks in it and everything else. It was amazing and the illustrations in these things but Sublime I think Dennis Patton did quite a few of them. But of course the punch and Judy section or pamphlet took my interest a lot and mainly because at the time it was very difficult to buy let's say walk-in figures and all these because they weren't here anymore but the supreme ones were modeled in the same style. Joe Parsonage mainly the pictures were at the time. So it wasn't too late or on that I actually managed to get Joe Parsonage punch and luckily for me it was actually Joe Parsonage's own punch and I managed to acquire it from his video. Actually it was at the Marsham puppet auction so I was lucky to actually get him and he's one of my favourites basically because I also bought him and I was a kid. The other character I actually really love from Supreme is quite odd but it's actually their room the Matador puppet and I don't know quite why I just really like this character and unfortunately the ball wasn't that great but the Matador superb piece. I have a thing for old punches especially I mean look at that for a character the nose the chin I mean it's just like a parrot it is absolutely amazing it's like it's almost off a totem pole this punch it is quite a standing and it comes from about 1880 and it comes from up north and it did belong to John Blundle and again I'd never actually seen it actually until it came up the sale I'd only ever seen it in photographs so when I actually walked into the auction room and saw this standing on the stage I was like oh my goodness you could actually feel the vibes coming off it it is quite an amazing piece of work that is very crude but the character the magic it actually sends off as a piece in his own right is absolutely amazing it's just wow I don't really know what else to say about it
