talking cane or talking walking stick

Here is a unique, hand-carved, item that ventriloquists can have a lot of fun with. It is a talking cane or talking walking stick. It was hand made by Gene Wolden of California and features a farmer figure on top with the lyrics to old McDonald written in a spiral fasion down the cane. The lever to move his mouth is counterbalanced to operate easily. It is as much a piece of art as it is a novelty ventriloquist figure.
