Sorry, but I am rather new to this. What is a "new doll type Pellham"? Any photos? Does anyone have any advice (warnings) about e-Bay. There are an awful lot...
Hi Jon, To my knowledge there are no doll like puppets being made under the pelham name at present, only those made by pedigree a while ago. They were the...
I'm Inclined to agree with Mark about aything made by other factorys other than the Pelham Puppet Factory in Malborough, or Collinbourne Duces. Even the...
Not to be nickety pickety but it was actually me who said that the other factories so called pelhams were no where near as good as proper pelhams, in a message...
Like the bride of the year request I really don't think it matters who wins what or who says what :o) its about the puppets and taking part. However if it...

Sorry if I have caused any confusion but my reply to Jon was made in the Puppet Club & not the surgery because the topic was originally brought up in the club...
Mark don't be silly :o) , The same question was asked in both domains, though I have deleted from the surgery that particular topic cos it was part of a ...
Dear Members, It has become apparant to me that I need to clear up a misinterpretaion evolved by using both the surgery site and the pelham puppet club at...
Having read the recent messages I hope no-one has been too upset at any misunderstandings. I took the decision not to 'vet' any messages as I don't feel it...
As I have said Sue my statement was in no way a criticism of the way you run the puppet club at all. However there are plenty of other website's to talk about...
Right I have read all the messages carefully and would like anyone to explain to me what I have said that is rude, offensive , misleading or dishonest,...
I know -- some of the recent prices have truly been astonishing, and I assume have set a few records for Pelham Puppets. I wonder where people get the money; ...
I mentioned the rather amazing prices being realised on ebay recently, does anyone know why this should be. It seems that the older SM characters are being...
Yes you absolutely right Sue and Tom its completely astounding the recent increase in prices, also amazing is the sudden apearence of so many so called rarer...
It was the Villain that fetched in excess of £1,000 last week. He was lovely, but............. I love the Giant and also the Wolf and as you say, they go so...
Wow ! I don't know where Stewart and Kerri find thier puppets but they certainly have the golden touch with them :o) one of the very few sellers who not only...
The prices that certain puppets are raising is quite suprising but I suppose expected really. Orville4 have been selling off a huge amount of rare of what...
Someone rang this afternoon wanting to know how much the small collection of Pelham Puppets found in her attic were worth. Unfortunately for her, they were...
To be calculating about it I think the larger production run characters / more popular will stick around the same price or even decrease but the lesser...
Actually, I believe the SM villain went for 1700 pounds; that surely must be the all-time record! I wonder if the waves of new buyers is the result of ...
I would not be too worried about prices on Ebay. Obviously puppets are a pretty cheap thing to collect. I occasionally work for an art collector who spends 7...
As far as prices are concerned, I think it would be easier to pin the tail on a donkey these days :o) I think like so many have said before , it's whatever...
I can't help but wonder if the 63 animal range (and some other rare characters) would have sold much better simply if they were photographed better! While ...
Tom, thank you for that, I am facinated now :o) do you have a comprehensive collection of Hazelles ? Do you have any pics we could see ? Please post them if...
Now you can see how I became confused Kieth !:o) Regarding the Hazelle's Marionettes there is a very good book I bought around 7 years ago from the U.S called...
I do so agree that something dearly sought must mean more than something too easily bought. These days I would be more than happy to add one or two puppets a...
Nice to see Hazelle puppets being discussed. I have around 20 or so, and I find them charming. Although mostly the same head was used, they certainly take on...
