Many great ideas... thanks, gang!

GUEST, I don't know who "William G" is, nor do I know what qualities I have presented that may or may not be similar to his.

I have not, as yet, copyrighted a "face", as most of my "clowning" over the years has been more in the George Carl tradition of prop comedy. I only started using anything resembling "traditional" clown makeup, etc over the last year or so.

I shall, however, post pictures when the complete "look" is together. Right now, when I do parties, I choose from a rather large collection of goofy clothes I have gathered over time. There is a particular character that is being created just now to complement my street act, so I will show him off to you all in due time.

Miniature concertina... wonder where I might even find one? I don't have the bread to buy one, but maybe I can do some bartering... hmmm... you know, a miniature ANYTHING looks hysterical when it's played by a fee-fi-fo-fum as big as me. ;)
