This Original Spitting Image puppet looks just like Borat or Saddam Hussain and is a piece of TV show history from the 80s/90s I was told.
This was purchased at auction in the 2000s and has been sitting in my collection ever since.
Unlike many other puppets that were auctioned, this includes the head and cables which allow the eyes only to move left and right. It still has markings on him as well.
There is a cable to move the eyes which still function. There is a second cable which I think may have been used to blink the eyes, but this has never worked. Overall condition shows signs of heavy production use and age. (one of the sleeves shows staining, please see photos). The teeth piece is loosening, but it has been like this since purchase over twenty years ago. The face also contains heavy dry damage all throughout and will need to be glued more firmly in to place or restored by new owner if desired.
Please review photos for overall condition- piece is heavily aged/damaged which is how alot of these style puppets have become over the years and could use some restoration as mentioned above.
