TICH &
QUACKERS
Already famous for his ventriloquial
figure, "Lord Charles", Ray Alan introduced these
new characters "Tich & Quackers" for a much-loved
Children's TV series of the 1960s. Quackers the
Duck was
operated by Tony Hart of "Vision On" fame.
The puppets were made by the brilliant
sculptor and leading British ventriloquist puppet-maker, Leonard Insull
(1883 - 1974). The original Tich & Quackers are now on display as part of the Len Insull Exhibition at Bantock House, near
Wolverhampton.
The above picture is from the cover of a
1968 Children's Annual. Characters Copyright Ray
