Rare Sale!

This week I’m offering you a very rare opportunity to purchase a set of twelve different original mint condition copies of The Ventriloquist’s Guild Journal.

The Ventriloquist’s Guild Journal was published periodically for a period of about five years by ventriloquist and historian, John Arvities. With most featuring the amazing art of Bill Nelson, and their many pages packed with rare photos and detailed current and historical information, this ventriloquist publication definitely stands alone among other works in its field.
