Considering the fact that the editor was little more than a teenager, THE ORACLE from 1986-87 was quite newsworthy for what it was. The 8-12 page newsletters had noteworthy contributors including, Capt. Dick Wightman, Chuck Jackson, Steve Axtell, Peter Rich, Bill DeMar, Alan Ende.
Unfortunately, Patrick Justian had a bit of a maverick reputation in the ventriloquist community and his efforts were not received with a great deal of enthusiasm. So the duration of this unique ventriloquist newsletter's publication was brief. This collection of 7 may possibly include all that were published. If you are a collector of ventriloquist memorabilia, you'll not get this chance often. You will receive the exact issues pictured. The pro vents featured on the covers are: Richard Bruno, Capt. Dick, Pinxy Larson, Todd Stockman, Robert Ator (non-vent; artist), and Wilson Cronenwett. For sale on eBay auction now: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290644659652
