- PRE-OWNED/PREVIOUSLY DISPLAYED VENTRILOQUIST DUMMY -
Edgar Bergen's "MORTIMER SNERD"
30" Standard Upgrade Semi-Professional
Ventriloquist Dummy
With Padded Wood Framed Hollow Body
==========================
Standard Upgrade Mortimer Snerd Semi-Professional Ventriloquist Dummy
Original standard dummy was made By Eegees / Goldberger
This Mortimer Snerd ventriloquist dummy has been upgraded with a wood framed hard hollow body with a ball and socket neck. The head is mounted on a wooden post and can turn full circle, tilt, and nod! The mouth works by pulling/moving the lever on the control stick (See photos). Mouth function properly (SEE VIDEO)
Clothing is correct vintage (SEE PHOTOS)
Face, hair and hands look great but will show the usual wear from age, handling and storage (SEE PHOTOS)
Notice he has FULL LENGTH legs and not the short stubby ones that require the pants be rolled up like some upgraded dummies have.
Shoes have been added
BRAND NEW REPLACEMENT STRAW HAT INCLUDED
COMES AS YOU SEE HIM
NOTE PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU BUY ANY UPGRADED VENTRILOQUIST DUMMY:
'UPGRADED' DUMMIES ARE NOT ALL THE SAME! MOST HAVE WOOD FRAME BODIES BUT INSTEAD OF A HARD SHELL CHEST, SOME JUST HAVE A PIECE OF CLOTH IN THE FRONT COVERING IT, MAKING THE CHEST APPEAR FLAT OR FALL INWARD.
THIS DUMMY'S BODY IS HOLLOW / WOOD FRAMED AND HAS A HARD SHELL FRONT CHEST GIVING THE CHEST DEPTH. ASK BEFORE YOU BUY! IT DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN APPEARANCE!

===============================
I am selling these ventriloquist dummies for the family of the
owner who has passed on. Proceeds will help them pay their expenses. I did not buy them
new. I do not know the history of them. If there are any dates, I
can only offer that information. I cannot and do not guarantee completeness,
originality. All items sold AS-IS as I am not the original owner.
If you have any questions, ASK them
before you buy so the item you receive is the item you are expecting! I
am happy to answer any questions, provide additional photos, whatever I can to
help you know what you are buying.
Unlike most eBay sellers I do not use the
generic 'say nothing' AI description. I take the time to accurately
describe the actual item in the photos. I post many photos from different
angles. It is your responsibility to view those photos and read the
description. to know what you are buying and not make your own assumptions.
I CANNOT BE MORE HONEST THAN
THAT!
SOLD AS "NO RETURNS"

SHIPPING
STANDARD SHIPPING (TO CONTINENTAL 48 STATES ONLY) WILL BE USPS GROUND or UPS GROUND or FEDEX GROUND (My Choice)
Shipping includes full value insurance. Most sellers do not bother paying the additional $5-$10 to properly insure the package for full value above the standard free $100 coverage.. Then, if there is damage of loss, you have to jump through hoops and file a claim to get the $100 from the shipper (who frequently decline claims if the item was not packed properly), then you will need to get eBay involved to receive money refunded from the seller. Sounds like fun! Signature may be required
You must have a continental US residential or commercial address for UPS or FedEx shipping. PO Box addresses will be shipped USPS Ground
If your address is a AK, HI, PR, Guam, VI or APO please write BEFORE purchasing for an accurate USPS quote.
USPS PRIORITY MAIL: If you prefer USPS Priority Mail please write before offering or purchasing as I cannot modify shipping options after an offer or purchase. Be aware that USPS Priority is no longer a 2-3 days delivery is now estimated by the USPS as 3-8 days delivery (if you are lucky) UPS & FedEx Ground still delivers within 4-5 days coast to coast and usually for less than USPS Priority Mail.
HANDLING TIME: This item will be shipped within Two (2)
Business Days after receipt of clear payment. If payment is received on
Thursday or Friday - it will be shipped the following week.
DELIVERY DATE: This is an eBay generated date. It
is NOT stated or guaranteed by the seller or the shipping service. It is
an eBay ESTIMATE based on a 'Best Case' scenario. It
does not take into consideration Time of Year (Holidays), Shippers Seasonal
workload, Natural Disasters (Hurricanes, Wild Fires, Volcanic Eruptions, etc)
or even a sneak attack by aliens from Mars. It is an ESTIMATE!
It is NOT a set in stone, guaranteed delivery date and should not be considered
the definite ‘WILL ARRIVE BY’ date.

=============================
QUALITY PACKING / WHY WE ARE DIFFERENT:
(1) WE PACK PROFESSIONALLY AND WITH CARE!
(2) We only use NEW, unused boxes
(3) We only use NEW store bought packing material
(4) We DO NOT re-use boxes from someone’s garbage
(5) We DO NOT use airpacks
(6) We DO NOT use crumpled newspaper from someone's garbage as filler
(7) We tape ALL seems of the box, not just one strip of tape down the center on each side
Unrealistically Cheap or Free Shipping usually gets your item crammed into a tiny box or tossed into an empty box, unwrapped with little or no packing material If you have bought on eBay you know what I am saying is true!
IT IS YOUR TIME AND YOUR MONEY. REMEMBER, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!
=============================NO RETURNS:
Due to the reason for the sale, to help a family pay expenses, and due to the fragile nature of this item, it is sold as NO RETURNS - You agree to those terms upon purchase.
This item will be shipped WITH insurance
If it arrives damaged or broken, please contact the USPS as it was shipped with insurance and the shipper is responsible for any damage that occurs while they have the package.
Thank You For Your Interest
