Lynn E. Wickstrom with his Pal Joey!  Hi Joey!  Another obscure DIY Christian puppet record saved here from obscurity.  (After a nasty break up with Lynn over writing credits, Joey retired with his earnings from this recording to a shed in upstate New York.)

Creepy.  We love these really odd records.  Scary dolls.  This children’s record is from Mascot Records in Denmark circa 1958.   The artist is Olaf Kjeldstrup but the real star is the ragdoll with the ukelele.

Mariangela  Philips Records (Portugal)  I believe Mariangela was a children’s TV show host in Portugal.  The bunny looks terrified.  And/or evil!   Poor kids.
