WILLIAM
SHAKESPEARE (GS2820)
William Shakespeare (died April
23, 1616) was an English poet and playwright
widely regarded as the greatest writer of the English
language. He wrote approximately 38 plays and 154
sonnets, as well as a variety of other poems. Already
a popular writer in his own lifetime, Shakespeare became
increasingly celebrated after his death and his work
adulated by numerous prominent cultural figures through
the centuries. He is often considered to be
England's national poet and is sometimes
referred to as the "Bard of Avon" (or simply
"The Bard") or the "Swan of Avon".

HILLBILLY
(59938)
Our Hillbilly Full-body
Puppet is 28 inches tall and has an arm rod that can be
attached to either hand. Stereotypical characteristics of
hillbillies as portrayed in popular media, are that they:
- smoke a corncob pipe
- are often moonshiners with an
(illegal) still on their property
- often drink from traditional
moonshine clay jugs marked "XXX"
- often wear a worn out floppy hat
- own a shotgun.
- often fight each other along
family lines. This is known as a
"feud."
- are often barefoot
- have poor personal and dental
hygiene (sometimes portrayed with few or no teeth
at all).
- are not motivated by money or
attempt in any way to improve their social status
in comparison to the outside world.
- are poorly educated
- engage in inbreeding
- drive vintage Ford and Chevrolet
(occasionally Dodge) pick-up trucks, for lack of
a newer vehicle
- wear overalls with a broken strap,
with no shirt underneath
- the men often have long, scraggly,
and unkempt beards

ANCHORS
AWEIGH
That's GS4567 Seaman Simon
there on the left. His surprized expression is due to his
discovery that the "Free Cruise" he signed up
for turned out to be a two year enlistment in the Navy.
To his right, in the midst of pledging allegence to the
flag, is GS4577 Petty Officer Patty.
Both are 28 inches tall and come with Navy Issue arm rods
that may be detached and clipped to either hand.

JOCKEY
(GS2817)
William "Corky" Cochran, with
his wonderful love of horses, always dreamed of winning a
race and having his name "Corky" up in lights
as a world-famous jockey. Unfortunately, when he did
actually win his first race, the track and subsequently
the newspapers, got his name mixed up with that of his
winning steed. So today, "Sea Biscuit" Cochran
is just happy he wasn't riding Mama's Baby in that race!
Whatever his name is, he is 28 inches tall and comes with
a removable arm rod.

DINNER IS
SERVED
And you are in for a real treat. World

your hand into the opening on his back and up into his
head to work his mouth.
